About Saint-Louis

Unrivalled, dense, clear, sonorous and luminous, born of a ball of fire and the breath of man, Saint-Louis crystal vibrates with the immense talent inherited from history and the extraordinary creative fantasy inspired by current trends. In 1767, Louis XV allowed the construction of a glassware manufacture on the location of the previous Müntzthal glassware of the 16th century. The majesty conferred the title of Royal Glassware of Saint-Louis to it. Fifteen years later, with the development of the manufacturing formula of crystal, the manufacture became the Royal Cristallerie of Saint-Louis. Since then, Saint-Louis signs every day crystal creations – tableware, vases, chandeliers and lighting items – crafted by master glassblowers and cutters considered to be among the very best in (“Meilleurs Ouvriers de France”).
