This set I purchased from an antique dealer in France who specializes in boulle high end items. This set is super rare as it has original red colored Baccarat crystal. Please don’t for forget that this set has all baccarat crystal which is more valuable than the regular crystal you usually see This tantalus box comes with 16 assorted glassware and 4 decanters all is in perfect condition expect one of the decanter stoppers has been glued back on at some point but it’s really not noticeable. The last photo in the photo section shows this issue and is circled. All the other crystal is mint. This box comes with its key and the lock does function as it should. The measurements of the box are as follows 10 inches width x 13 inches depth x 10 inches height. As you can see in the photos the box is in fantastic shape and is really high quality. I will be shipping this item out ups ground and will have it professionally packaged called fragile packed and each crystal will be bubble wrapped individually and each decanter will be bubble wrapped individually so rest assured this item will arrive to you undamaged. Shipping cost is higher due to this. This item will also come with a certificate of authenticity from where u bought it from. You can see this certificate in the photo section on the last photo. I’m setting the buy it know price at $3500and im firm at this price. Message me with any questions. See less
