A set of six clear lead crystal stemmed glasses from France, dating from 1920 in the Art Deco style. Each piece stands 10.62 cm high, forming a matching ensemble of drinking vessels. The clear glass features a polished finish, complemented by gold gilding around the top rim and a circular base. Distinctive decorative details include an acid-etched gold monogram 'B' on the front of each tapered bowl, alongside a ribbed stem above the round foot. Ideal for display on a sideboard top, this glassware set suits dining tables or drinks cabinets in modern homes. The clear and gold colour scheme coordinates with various interior palettes while serving small portions of liqueurs or cordials during dinner parties or celebrations.

FAQs

During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, prominent French glassworks such as Baccarat perfected techniques combining acid etching with gold gilding. These methods allowed craftsmen to apply intricate monograms, crests, and floral motifs onto crystal vessels for high-end tableware.

Authentic pieces from this period were crafted using high-clarity lead crystal, prized for its resonance and weight. Decorative elements were applied using gold leaf or liquid gold paint fused onto acid-etched surfaces.

Authentic pieces often feature precise acid-etched pattern numbers, maker marks, or custom monograms. Before Baccarat introduced etched trade marks on all production in 1936, many items were marked with paper labels or distinct acid-etched monogram designs executed to high technical standards.

Stemware of this era functions as both practical tableware and decorative accenting. Displaying a set on a polished sideboard, marble bar cart, or inside a glass-fronted cabinet adds historical detail and metallic contrast to a modern dining space.

Gilded stemware should always be washed by hand in lukewarm water using a mild dish soap and a soft cloth. Dishwashers, abrasive sponges, and harsh chemicals must be avoided, as heat and friction can wear away the gold gilding.
