History of Baccarat Crystal (from their website) A symbol of beauty and crystallized perfection, Baccarat has been a celebration of transfigured senses since the Age of Enlightenment. Its fabulous destiny—of magic and fascination, of timeless skill and glass workers’ panache—is written in sparkling letters and imbued with ancestral modernity.Founded in Baccarat (Lorraine) in the mid-eighteenth century by Bishop Louis de Montmorency-Laval of Metz, the world’s most prestigious crystal manufacture has flourished over the centuries as a well of inspiration for all connoisseurs in search of exceptional work. The legend began in 1764 when Louis XV authorized the creation of a factory opposite the village of Baccarat. By 1823 Baccarat had become the leading crystal works in France; it continued to grow, pushing the boundaries of creation and spreading the prestige of crystal to the four corners of the globe.
