The Imperator Eagle designed by the Czech artist Jan Tesař for Baccarat, represents the finest in technical prowess. An exceptional piece for all art collectors and enthusiasts. Creating the piece called for the development of a special furnace to hold the span of the bird's unfolded wings in a single block of crystal. This monumental piece of 34 kg of spectacular dimensions is then cut by the manufactory finest craftsmen ("Meilleurs Ouvriers de France"). Perched on a rock with wings spread, its beak pointed forward and piercing eyes tracking an invisible prey, the Imperator eagle is captured in an imposing posture. King of the sky, able to rise above the clouds, the eagle is a symbol of strength and prestige. 

Baccarat has stood at the forefront of French crystal artistry since 1764, when it was founded by royal decree in the village of Baccarat, Lorraine. From its origins in the village of Baccarat, every piece has been meticulously handcrafted in France, embodying clarity, brilliance, and timeless artistry. Known for its signature red crystal — tinted with 24-karat gold — and iconic designs like the Harcourt glass, Baccarat continues to illuminate the world’s most refined interiors. Today, it stands as a symbol of enduring elegance and exceptional craftsmanship, where tradition meets innovation in every detail.
