Pair of tapered liqueur decanters, made of strong translucent crystal, mouth-blown and tool-shaped, with a rich and complex hand-chiseled decoration of cross-hatching, diamond-shaped motifs, raised lines, rosettes and jeweled motifs. Original stoppers, also tapered, made of molded-pressed translucent crystal with a cut decoration of cut corners. "lagny" model, art nouveau period circa 1915-1925. No signature: given the early period, these two decanters do not bear an indelible signature (period on the label). The model is, however, illustrated and reproduced in numerous books or catalogs, including the japanese book "old baccarat tableware" (shobbo, 2009). “lagny” model – this model, lagny, was created in 1912, and was marketed and declined throughout the 20th century, until 1993. It is a luxurious and high-end production, because the chiselling, in particular, is eminently complex, but also very beautiful. It perfectly dresses the crystal, enhancing its brilliance and reflections. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
