Baccarat crystal is truly exquisite, so knowing how to spot the real thing is imperative. Several hallmarks set Baccarat apart. First, the signature Baccarat stamp, a lion holding a star, is etched on the base. Second, real Baccarat has no lead crystal, so it's sparingly etched andheavy, with a deep molten quality.
The cuts are also precisely executed, angles are sharp, and the facets reflect light superbly. The pattern is perfectly symmetrical and seamlessly flows across the piece. Finally, hold it up to the light - real Baccarat absorbs light, rather than reflecting it. No photo or catalog can do justice to the dazzling beauty of authentic Baccarat crystals. With these tips, you'll be distinguishing the dazzling Baccarat every time!
