The service combines two distinguished Christofle crystal collections: the sculptural Osiris stemware and the complementary Cluny Old-Fashioned glasses.

Created by designer Bernard Yot, the Osiris collection was introduced by Christofle in 1991, drawing its inspiration from the aquatic and botanical world of ancient Egypt. Its distinctive decoration evokes the forms of lotus flowers and papyrus reeds, translated here into an elegant cut-crystal motif rising from the base of each bowl. The Osiris crystal pattern was produced during the period 1999–2005.

The service includes three graduated Osiris stemware forms — water, red wine and white wine — creating a beautifully balanced formal table setting. Each glass retains its original Christofle label, an especially desirable detail for collectors and a clear indication that the service has never been used.
Completing the ensemble are six Christofle Cluny Old-Fashioned whisky glasses, reference 79 04 020. The Cluny design belongs to one of Christofle's historic collections, celebrated for its restrained classical elegance; the house traces the collection to 1862, with its present form redesigned by Studio Christofle in 1964.
The Cluny tumblers have a capacity of approximately 19 cl and a height of approximately 8.4–8.7 cm, corresponding to Christofle reference 79 04 020.

Made in France, the ensemble represents a particularly attractive opportunity to acquire a substantial Christofle crystal service in unused condition, complete with its original presentation packaging and documentation.
The crystal itself is exceptionally preserved and appears never to have been used. The original boxes show varying degrees of storage wear; two boxes in particular display more noticeable rubbing and wear to the exterior. This is limited to the packaging and does not affect the condition of the crystal.
