Saint-Louis Trianon Barware

The Saint-Louis Trianon Barware collection extends the world’s oldest matched glass service into a complete bar range: a highball, cylindrical tumblers in two sizes, an old fashioned glass, shot glasses in clear, amethyst, chartreuse, and sky blue, and a square decanter. Trianon’s wide variety of cuts and sizes makes it the ideal companion for all functions.

Every Trianon piece is mouth-blown and hand-cut at the Cristallerie Saint-Louis in Lorraine, using techniques that have been practiced at the house since the collection’s introduction in 1834. The colored shot glasses achieve their tones through Saint-Louis’s masse coloring technique.

In 1834, the Trianon collection inaugurated the era of the matched glass service — the concept of offering a coordinated set of glasses in different forms and sizes for different beverages at the same table. It was the first collection to propose this idea, now so fundamental to entertaining that it is taken entirely for granted. In the 1960s, Trianon was selected to grace the tables of the Élysée Palace — the official residence of the French President — a distinction that confirmed its place among the great French formal services. Appreciated for its wide variety of cuts and sizes, it remains the ideal companion for all functions. The collection takes its name from the Trianon palaces within the grounds of Versailles. Established in 1586, Saint-Louis stands as Europe’s oldest crystal manufacturer, holding the title of Royal Cristallerie since 1781.
