Saint-Louis Crystal Water Glass | Gavarni Pattern | Early 20th Century

Elegant crystal water glass by Saint-Louis, from the distinguished “Gavarni” pattern. Introduced in the first half of the 20th century, this luxury design is richly cut with deep, intricate motifs that capture and reflect the light beautifully. The refined work on the foot and stem of the glass.

This piece predates 1936 and is therefore unsigned, consistent with production of the period. The model can be referenced in Saint-Louis catalogues of the era (see photos for verification). A superb example of fine French crystal craftsmanship.
