Often referred to as “Tête de Cheval” (Horse Head), the design captures the strength and movement of the horse through a wonderfully sculptural, almost architectural form. Deeply modeled planes through the mane and face catch and refract the light, giving the clear crystal remarkable brilliance and dimension from every angle.

Particularly appealing as a pair, these make a sophisticated symmetrical statement on a library shelf, console, mantel, or executive desk. Their compact scale also makes them wonderful objects for layering among books and other collected pieces, while the weight and quality of the crystal allow them to function beautifully as substantial paperweights.

Both pieces bear Baccarat identification on the underside, including the acid-etched Baccarat hallmark and engraved script signature.
