Antique French Baccarat 9.5" Decanter, 4 Cordial Goblets, c1830 Diam Cut Crystal
Their most elegant cut, this is a set from c.1830s, shown in the reference catalogue page in that last photo (diamond cut crystal). The liqueur sized liquor decanter and 4 elegant "cordial" or liqueur goblets are offered together. Beg to be on your desktop, den table, bedside stand, don't they? Or mine! Very heavy cut crystal, so elegant and opulent. It's surprising to me that these don't have more damage, but I don't even feel tiny nips on the tips of those diamond-facet cuts. I wish my photographer did a better job with light on glass and crystal. These pieces deserve better photos, truly. I'm going to have to give some lessons, aren't I. Yet you can clearly see the beauty. These are Louis-Philippe era, or slightly before. I believe it's the most beautiful of all the old Baccarat glass, so intricately hand cut. I have a collection of my own I'll be beginning to offer and disburse. Look for them all sold in sets, same pattern. Measurements noted on the photos Very good to excellent co
