The workmanship is superb - try buying any modern baccarat glass for £25 or so!!
Faceting is great, star cut bases too, very high quality sulphides and great colours for bases. If you're lucky you can pick up flash overlays and double overlays for very reasonable prices. When then are displayed appropriately they look great...
Sounds like a sales blurb (note to self, buy some sulphides!!!)
Noticed on the French website of ebay that they issued collection 6 in 1970 so production must go back to mid 1960's and lots of material to go at! Certainly the Pope John XXIII dates from 1963 (I think?)
The best sellers tend to be iconic figures like Churchill JFK and Napolean (war!), give me Rousseau anyday....
