Baccarat and Saint-Louis have a long history, having merged with Saint-Louis for more than 30 years before becoming independent after 1857.
Also a French brand, with overlapping periods in history, Baccarat is also dominated by handmade crystal products, and like Saint-Louis, it has a number of MOF award-winning artisans. The style of the cup still retains elements of classicism, such as the ornate diamond stripes, but it is more modern than Saint-Louis.
For Chinese buyers, the biggest difference between Baccarat and Saint-Louis may be that in 2017, the Chinese investor bought 88.8% of its shares for 1.08 billion yuan, but still retains its French manufacturing base and core team, and the purchase has become much easier, and most of Baccarat's products can be bought on Tmall.
Among them, the Haku series is the most classic series of Bacarat, including all kinds of wine utensils, water utensils and table lamps, the overall shape is more classical, retaining the edges and corners without losing the delicate and gorgeous. The bottom of the new Haku series wine glass is hexagonal, and a red knot handle is embellished in the middle of the cup foot, which is convenient to hold the glass, and the price exceeds 3,000 yuan.
The narcissus series is the latest series at present, with two cups of different capacities of No. 2 and No. 3, priced at 2,500 yuan a set. The large area of irregular facets makes the cup present different effects under the reflection of light at different angles, and the cup stem is not vertically concentrated, and the asymmetrical avant-garde shape is like a daffodil bending over the water.
The four small castle sets of the wine tasting series, fashionable and minimalist shape, including a champagne glass, two red wine glasses and a flat glass, if you consider buying Baccarat for the first time, 1980 yuan to receive a set, full of sincerity and very cost-effective.
