Description from the seller

Baccarat – Liqueur service

Cut crystal, varied hues

Maison Baccarat – Early 20th century

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

The set 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, characteristic of Baccarat productions from the early 20th century.

The slender silhouettes of the glasses, with curved bowls adorned with beveled facets and precisely cut panels, harmonize with the absolute transparency of the stems and footed bases, creating a set 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 functionality. The set is authenticated by the Baccarat mark, guaranteeing its origin and its association with one of the most important French artistic crystal houses.

This service perfectly illustrates the aesthetics of the era, where the art of crystal serves daily life with a keen sense of form and light. It today constitutes a sought-after collectible piece, suitable for display in a cabinet or for a high-level decorative presentation.

Composition:
– 8 matching glasses

Dimensions approximate:
– Height: 19 cm
– Diameter: 8 cm

Condition: very good condition, with slight traces compatible with age, without major wear. Rare decorative object, ideal for Baccarat collectors, Art Nouveau enthusiasts and French decorative arts lovers.

Delivery to a pick-up point. The images are part of the description.
