Baccarat – Liqueur Service

Cut crystal, assorted colors

Maison Baccarat – Early 20th century

Rare and elegant colored crystal wine service, comprising six matching glasses, crafted by the prestigious Baccarat house, a symbol of excellence in French glassmaking for more than two centuries.

The ensemble is distinguished by the purity of its lines, the finesse of the cut crystal, and its subtle varied hues – emerald green, chartreuse green, golden amber, amethyst, ruby, and sapphire – capturing light reflections with remarkable intensity, a characteristic of Baccarat productions from the early 20th century.

The slender silhouettes of the glasses, with curved bowls adorned with arched facets and precisely cut panels, harmonize with the absolute transparency of the feet and stems, creating an ensemble that is both sober and refined.

Each glass, with a sculptural body and architectural form, testifies to great glassmaking mastery, where the cuts balance decorative elegance and practicality. The set is authenticated by the Baccarat mark, guaranteeing its origin and association with one of the most important French artistic crystal manufactories.

This service perfectly illustrates the aesthetic of the era, when the art of crystal served everyday life with a keen sense of form and light. It is today a sought-after collectible piece, suitable for display cases as well as for high-level decorative presentation.
