Description from the seller

Elegant set of 5 exceptionally refined antique glasses by Saint-Louis in model Massenet dating to the early 20th century, prior to 1936.
Crafted in luminous clear crystal with a rich raspberry ruby overlay, each glass is elevated on an extraordinarily tall and graceful stem, creating a strikingly sophisticated silhouette characteristic of the finest French crystal artistry of the period.
The bases are hand-engraved. The contrast between the vibrant ruby overlay and the transparent crystal gives these pieces remarkable depth and brilliance in the light.
A rare and highly decorative ensemble, perfect for serving vodka, liqueurs, or other fine spirits, while also making an exceptional display piece for collectors of antique French crystal and luxury tableware.
Presented in excellent antique condition, with beautiful clarity and preservation throughout.
