Thom Browne and Baccarat unveil a collaboration with the launch of a special collection of four glasses, a coupe, two wine glasses, a tumbler, and a whiskey carafe. Handcrafted in Lorraine, France, by the artisans of baccarat, each piece is a testament to excellence, avant-garde style and creativity – values shared by both maisons.

With this exclusive collection, meticulously curated by the designer himself, Thom Browne extends his creative realm into the sphere of personal life, the art of celebration and the joy of togetherness. Reedited from Baccarat’s archive, each piece has been etched with the distinctive four-bar motif of Thom Browne, seamlessly matching with the purity of the crystal and the elegance of their design.

Among these iconic pieces, the Yacht Glass, created in 1925 by Georges Chevalier for the international exhibition of decorative arts in Paris is particularly striking. This creation, characterised by its square base, gained popularity among various influential figures, notably the Prince of Wales, who chose it to adorn the table of his yacht.

From glassblowing to crystal cutting, the creation of each piece showcases a unique know-how handed down through generations and has required the talent of the “best artisans in France”, acclaimed craftsmen known for their unparalleled skill in their field.

The collection is exclusively available at www.thombrowne.com and at selected Thom Browne stores; including 100 Hudson Street in New York, and 3 Albemarle Street in London.
