Description from the seller

Set of 6 Baccarat Crystal Glasses - Model "Carcassonne" (1950s/1960s)

Refined set consisting of 6 wine glasses in fine colorless crystal, made by the renowned French fashion Baccarat. The glasses belong to the elegant "Carcassonne" model.
This is a piece of glassware history, born in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department and the result of the exceptional skill of French glassmakers. The design combines slender lines with geometries that recall the elegance of the Art Deco style.
Design Features:
The Cup: It presents a flared and elegant silhouette, proportioned ideally for tasting.
Finishing/Craft: The lower part of the cup (the parison) is finely decorated with a concave cut and deep glossy vertical grooves (paneled cut). This craftsmanship creates spectacular play of light and reflections thanks to the absolute clarity of the lead crystal.
The Stem and Base: The cup narrows as it rests on a faceted stem (baluster), hand-worked, which leads to an elegant ring knot (smooth button) and a solid circular foot.
Conditions and Authenticity:
The glasses are antique (dating from the 1950s-1960s) and are in excellent condition, free of defects or chips. Being pieces made entirely and blown by hand, very slight differences between glasses may be observed (in weight, height, or in minute details of the motifs). These minimal variations are not defects but the hallmark of artisanal workmanship, making each single glass a unique and unrepeatable object.
Under the base of each glass is the authentic Baccarat factory mark (the classic circular sandblasted logo featuring the jug, the glass, and the goblet with the inscription "Baccarat France", introduced by the house starting in 1936).
Technical Sheet:
Producer: Baccarat (France)
Model: Carcassonne
Material: Mouth-blown lead crystal cut by hand
Era: 1950s/1960s (20th century)
Quantity: 6 glasses
Height: 13.3 cm
Diameter at rim: 7.5 cm
Shipping and Packaging:
We guarantee professional packaging, specifically for fragile antique crystal objects. Shipping will be carried out via international express courier with an online tracking code to monitor delivery in total safety.
