Founded in the 16th century as France's oldest crystal workshop, Saint-Louis has inherited traditional craftsmanship and refined aesthetics, and is beloved worldwide as a byword for high-quality crystal. This pair of crystal glasses is from the "Lorraine" series, a Rococo Revival masterpiece that embodies the advanced techniques cultivated throughout the company's history.
Estimated to have been produced between the 1910s and 1930s, this glass evokes the glamour of the Belle Epoque. Its size is particularly large and striking, even among old crystal pieces, and when you hold it in your hand, you can sense its solidity and stability.
The entire glass is hand-blown lead crystal with an acid-etched finish, featuring delicate floral arabesques and a rocaille shell pattern. The stem is artisanally faceted, delicately reflecting the light that filters into the glass and adding a touch of elegance to any table setting. With a diameter of approximately 8 cm and a height of approximately 17.5 cm, the glass has an elegant silhouette yet makes a striking statement on the dining table.
This is an early Saint-Louis masterpiece that is extremely difficult to obtain these days, making it a highly sought-after collector's piece. Although there are some minor stains and scuffs due to age, there are no notable flaws and it is in good overall condition.
