Baccarat is a renowned French luxury crystal manufacturer founded in 1764 in the town of Baccarat by permission of King Louis XV. Internationally celebrated for its exceptionally clear, finely cut lead crystal, Baccarat has produced chandeliers, stemware, perfume bottles, sculptures, and decorative objects for royalty, heads of state, and luxury houses for more than two centuries. During the 19th century, the company became a symbol of French craftsmanship and artistic innovation, earning commissions from imperial courts including those of Russia and the Ottoman Empire. Today, Baccarat remains synonymous with elegance and prestige, blending traditional handcrafting techniques with contemporary design collaborations while maintaining its reputation as one of the world’s premier crystal makers.
