Gilles Rozé and Yves Savinel met in the Ecole des Arts Appliqués and then continued their edu-
cation at the National school of engneering and technology in Paris. In 1973, they created Sopha Praxis. They created
Savinel & Rozé / Designers Associés in 1982 because of their desire to assert the specific nature of their creative attitude.
The union of their curiosity, and the continued complementarity of their different approaches and experiences are placed
entirely at the service of their loyal customers. Since 1991, they have happily and enthusiastically been creating collections
of glassware for Baccarat, including the best selling Véga line.
Share with us your comments about Baccarat Crystal:
Baccarat Crystal has, from the beginning, affixed its signature on strong works illustrating all the facets of artistic craftsmanship and covering a vast repertoire of inspiration.
In 1764 King Louis XV of France gave Bishop Montmorency-Laval of Metz permission to found a glassworks in the village of Baccarat located in Lorraine in eastern France.
The creations of great artists inspired by the magic of crystal are all magnificent stones brought together into building the Art de Vivre collection.
This is how Baccarat perpetuates the great French tradition of a cosmopolitan art of living. Envisioned by Philippe Starck, the Baccarat House in Paris, home to the brand’s headquarters, is a meeting place for its most beautiful creations – and one of its most beautiful manifestations.
