All auctions / Miscellaneous / Cristalleria francese - Drinking service (8) - Crystal
Table service in light, transparent crystal, mouth-blown and hand-engraved, composed of 7 liquor glasses with a height of 9.6 cm and a diameter of 4.8 cm, and a bottle with stopper, height 32 cm x diameter 12.5 cm. In the neck of the decanter it is numbered, as well as on the stopper. Bottle with a long, faceted neck, an antique piece belonging to brands of the finest factory marks among Europe's glassware of the Belle Époque (roughly 1880–1915), attributable to French manufactories such as Baccarat or Saint Louis. It features an acid-etched decoration with garland motifs, leaves and bows, festoons, and hanging droplets typical of the Empire or Neoclassical style with a delicate vegetative motif. The stopper is fully faceted in a “diamond” shape (geometric facets/teardrop), typical of high-end production from the late 19th or early 20th century. It is not possible to determine the exact mark with certainty from the image alone, since many historic crystal and blown-glass manufactories did not place a visible mark at the center of the object until around 1936; earlier pieces often bore only a paper label. With use, washing, and the passing of decades (these pieces date to more than a century ago, circa 1880–1915), the label would inevitably detach without leaving a trace. Val Saint Lambert (Belgium) or Saint-Louis (France): Both manufactories produced crystal with this identical Louis XVI acid motif from the late 19th to early 20th century. The cup features a classic tulip/ goblet form. The stem is slender, smooth, and straight, connected to the cup base by a small ring/knot in solid crystal. The flat, circular base is decoration-free to balance the refined elegance of the upper part.
