The legend of Baccarat began in 1764, in the French village of Lorraine. Producing crystal glass for royalties such as Louis XVIII, Rajasthani maharajas, Arabian kings, leaders of the Ottoman Empire and members of the Russian and Japanese court, Baccarat soon became the world’s most prestigious crystal factory. Today, its tradition is being reinterpreted by cutting-edge designers such as Marcial Berro, Serge Mansau, Jaime Hayon, Marcel Wanders and Philippe Stark. Stark’s name also stands behind the supreme decor of the Maison Baccarat in Paris and Moscow. The first crystal factory to adapt its chandeliers to the magic of electricity in 1896.
