*The Baccarat crystal factory
is a crystal factory located in the Baccarat municipality in the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle, in Lorraine in France. In 1764 King Louis The vast enclosure of the Compagnie des Cristalleries de Baccarat almost merged with the small town of Baccarat. Production consisted of the manufacture of window tiles, mirrors and glass services. After the French Revolution, the company declined until its bankruptcy in 1806, when it was sold at auction to a merchant from Verdun. In 1816, the Glassworks was bought by an industrialist, Aimé-Gabriel d'Artigues (1773-1848). This was the beginning of the prestigious rise of Cristalleries de Baccarat. The real start of the company dates from its purchase in 1822 by a wealthy Parisian, Pierre-Antoine Godard-Desmarest. Baccarat received its first royal commission in 1823 from King Louis XVIII. This was the start of a long series of commissions for royal families and heads of state across the planet. It was also a period of strong international growth. In 1855 Baccarat won its first gold medal at the Universal Exhibition in Paris. From 1860 Baccarat registered its trademark on its pieces. The brand was a label stuck on the pieces. Crystal production took off during this period, and Baccarat built a worldwide reputation by manufacturing very high quality glasses, candlesticks, vases and perfume bottles.
