Christian Dior - Drinking service (16) - Montaigne - Crystal

Exclusive Crystal Glass Table Service by Christian Dior – 16 Pieces (Manufactured in the 1980s).

Where haute couture mastery meets the art of the table, this extraordinary and rarissima service signed Christian Dior was born. Made in France around the 1980s (a golden period for the Dior Maison line), this set perfectly embodies the sophisticated, geometric, and avant-garde aesthetics typical of vintage design.

Each piece stands out for a heavy crystal of the highest quality, with impeccable brilliance and echo. The design is a triumph of formal rigor and elegance: the cup features a clear, sharp hexagonal facet that captures and reflects light in a spectacular way. The true sculptural element is the inverted truncated pyramid stem, segmented by a series of tight and tapering rings that provide a solid, ergonomic grip and an unparalleled dramatic impact at the table.

A service born not only to astonish but to redefine the concept of art de la table signed by one of the world’s most famous maisons.
