Description from the seller
Elegant Set of 6 Blown and Etched Crystal Stemware – Belle Époque Style (Baccarat / Saint-Louis style) – France, late 19th / early 20th century
A splendid and elegant antique set of 6 collectible stemware glasses, crafted from mouth-blown crystal of exceptional purity and resonance. The glasses are adorned with a meticulously detailed acid-etched design (gravure à l'acide) of the highest quality, characteristic of the most prestigious French manufactories active at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, such as Baccarat and Saint-Louis.
The decoration, in perfect Belle Époque / Louis XV Revival taste, features a refined symmetrical central bouquet of delicate field flowers enclosed by soft, flowing foliage and scrolls, surmounted by a slender botanical stem. The upper rim is beautifully finished with a continuous, satin-etched geometric arabesque border.
Each glass stands on an elegant hand-shaped stem featuring a central faceted knop, tapering down to a smooth, circular foot. Being an antique production prior to 1936, these pieces do not bear an acid-etched signature or circular stamp on the underside (at the time, glasses were only identified by temporary paper labels), a feature that confirms their authenticity and historical period.
A truly charming set, ideal for elevating an exclusive table setting or enriching a fine display of antique art glass.
Technical Details
• Material: Fine crystal, mouth-blown and acid-etched
• Period: Late 19th century – Early 20th century (Belle Époque, approx. 1890-1910)
• Style: Louis XV / Art Nouveau / Belle Époque
• Origin: France (Baccarat / Saint-Louis style)

Condition
Excellent antique / vintage condition. The crystal is clear and brilliant, retaining magnificent transparency. No chips, cracks, hairline fractures, or restorations.
