AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rearing horse in crystal – Baccarat
Dimensions: 22 cm in height – 19 cm in length – 8.5 cm in width.
Signature: 'Baccarat' engraved in cursive + Baccarat seal on the base.
Condition: excellent, tiny traces of limited use confined to the base.

Perfect expression of the timeless glamour of the Baccarat House, this crystal rearing horse stands out with its Mid Century style featuring pure lines, as well as a sculptural elegance that evokes the refinement of Hollywood Regency. Its silhouette, both stylized and dynamic, captures the controlled power of the animal in an upward movement of great fluidity.

The crystal, with impeccable transparency, plays with light and creates spectacular optical effects, highlighting every curve and tension of the body. The twisted base, a true visual feat, accentuates the vertical momentum and gives the piece a bright, almost theatrical presence — a signature of Baccarat creations from the golden years of decorative design.

The sculpture bears the signature 'Baccarat' in cursive, delicately engraved, as well as the official seal on the back, guaranteeing impeccable authenticity. Preserved in exceptional condition, it shows only very slight signs of use on the base, invisible in presentation.

Exclusive piece, rare in this format and particularly sought after for its aesthetic that is both modernist and luxurious, this crystal horse becomes an instant focal point in any interior: a decorative work that combines prestige, craftsmanship, and brilliance.
