Baccarat, 2010
The ‘United Crystal Woods’ collections (2010) is inspired by a vision of shifting realities revealed through the fabulous attributes of crystal that allow for everlasting beauty and resounding luminance. With poetic qualities, ‘L'Ivresse des Bois’ includes sophisticated Burgandy, Bordeaux and Champagne glasses featuring Marcel Wanders' famous clown nose in Baccarat red or clear crystal and two magnificently elegant carafes – including one decanter. The ‘Les Rois de la Foret’ is four majestic, clear crystal vases with cut patterns of contrasting geometric rhythms set atop gilded, stainless steel, vermeil or chrome bases. The ‘La Foret des Songes’ are engraved candlesticks and vases upon a single deeply cut crystal base. The ‘Les Esprits des Bois’ brings a dream of large deer that magically metamorphose to life. Exceptional square, polished stainless steel candelabras topped with engraved, crystal candleholders, votive holders or vases.
