Talleyrand Glass (Old Baccarat)

The Talleyrand series was created in 1937, inspired by the iconic Harcourt collection. It was named in honor of Talleyrand, the renowned French diplomat who was also celebrated as a gastronome. Its boldly sculpted six-sided flat cuts and the substantial form that gently flares toward the rim generate intricate, opulent reflections of light, casting a kaleidoscopic world within the glass. A versatile piece that gracefully complements water, wine, beer, cocktails, and soft drinks—while also serving beautifully for appetizers and desserts.

Baccarat
Baccarat is a French luxury crystal brand cherished by royal families around the world. Its origins trace back to 1764, when King Louis XV of France granted permission to establish a glassworks in the village of Baccarat in the Lorraine region. Since the creation of its first crystal glass in 1816, Baccarat has spent more than two centuries weaving an art of light and shadow through the exceptional craftsmanship of its artisans. Mastering the series of processes—blowing, cutting, and polishing—requires as many as fifteen years of training, and the company has produced more than fifty recipients of the M.O.F., France’s prestigious Meilleur Ouvrier de France award. Baccarat crystal is known as “full‑lead crystal,” boasting a strict quality standard with a lead oxide content of over 30 percent. As a result, only 60 to 70 percent of pieces make it to market, while the remainder are discarded for not meeting the brand’s uncompromising criteria. The transparency and brilliance that captivate celebrities around the globe bring a sense of radiance worthy of celebratory occasions and possess the power to elevate everyday moments into the extraordinary.
