Set of 36 Exquise Baccarat Polignac Crystal Pieces, France, 1950

Luxury at its finest, set of 24 high-end drink glasses in clear crystal and 1 decanter by Baccarat.

The Polignac glassware showcases Baccarat’s meticulous craftsmanship. Deep orgue bevel cuts are etched directly into the Clear crystal, radiating from the foot of the glass to the base of the wide bowl. This, in turn, puts the smoothness of the upper bowl in sharp relief. The intricate detailing gives the Polignac glass the appearance of impressive heft, as if it were a modern-day chalice. The polished silhouette and prismatic qualities make it worthy of any festive occasion or special soirée.

In mint condition.

Baccarat

In 1764, in eastern France, a group of daring craftsmen set out to transform the four elements of nature – earth, air, fire and water – into glass of absolute quality. In 1816, they perfected their well-kept secret formula to obtain a crystal of unparalleled purity. In 1855, for the first World Fair in Paris, Baccarat unveiled its unique original, soulful craftsmanship to the world.
