Title: Baccarat Crystal
Post by: CaptBoyce on May 13, 2011, 01:12:39 pm

Was curious if anyone knew much about Baccarat crystal.  Recently procured a pair of candlesticks which are gorgeous and have the name Baccarat Depose on the bottom.  Curious what timeline I'm dealing with here.  Thanks.

As far as I know, the "Depose" trademark was only used on Baccarat from 1860-1914, but I am honestly not 100% sure about that. I would say those candlesticks are reasonably valuable.

Would recommend that you have someone "in the know" do a hands on inspection....knock offs have been made.  Hope yours are original!
