Over the course of two decades, Philippe Starck has transformed the House's icons to give them a new destiny. Each creation, met with great success, symbolizes the prolific encounter between the designer and the exceptional craftsmanship of the Manufacture's artisans. Beginning with the Harcourt glass, a “cult model” that he has humorously reinterpreted over the years: in black crystal in the Un Parfait (Darkside) box, topped with a lampshade in the Our Fire candelabra, upside down in the Hic suspension, or metamorphosed into a Checkers board. 

In 2023, Baccarat and Philippe Starck celebrate 20 years of collaboration with a tribute to Talleyrand, another emblematic collection of the House. In the image of the famous diplomat whose genius fascinated so many, the Talleyrand service symbolizes a certain form of modern intelligence. The edge of the glass shaped with powerful lines, a rim delicately sculpted in crystal embraces the contour of the lips and lends lightness to the gesture. Philippe Starck was inspired by this essential detail to conceive a collection of pieces with sculptural, and sometimes monumental lines. sculptural, and sometimes monumental lines.

For 20 years, the designer has been inventing a new imaginary world where each creation highlights the very essence of Baccarat: to evoke wonderment and procure emotion at every moment.
