Born in 1586, the Müntzthal glassworks became the "Royal Glassworks of Saint-Louis" in 1767 and fourteen years later discovered the secret of crystal production. Renamed Cristallerie Royale de Saint-Louis, the factory introduced the concept of serving glasses for the table with the famous Trianon model. Since then, the manufacture signs every day crystal pieces made by master glassmakers and master cutters counting among the Best Craftsmen of France. All of them are holders of an irreplaceable, ancestral know-how, enriched from generation to generation.
