Paris in a Glass, Circa 1924.

With their delicate curves and exquisite design, these imported-from-France crystal Champagne Coupes evoke the radiant glamour of 1920s Paris—a city alive with artistic revolution, extravagant soirées, and avant-garde brilliance. Each glass enhances the effervescence of Champagne, the bubbles rising in elegant celebration of an era that sparkled with invention and indulgence. In 1924,“the summer of a thousand parties,” as F. Scott Fitzgerald described it—Paris became the glittering heart of the modern world, where the clink of crystal punctuated every toast to beauty, brilliance, and bohemia.

The “City of Paris” Crystal Champagne Cocktail Coupe revisits that Golden Age of Parisian nostalgia with a distinctly charming, modern refinement. Once a few restless artists and writers—Hemingway, Picasso, Stein—made their homes there, everyone who was drawn to the salons of the Left Bank where conversation and Champagne flowed with equal ease. To drink from this coupe is to taste les années folles—the crazy years—when Paris was a perpetual party, and every glass lifted was a small act of art.
