Baccarat double cut crystal salt cellar with metal mount

An elegant double salt cellar in cut crystal by Baccarat, mounted on a silver-plated metal base bearing the "C•P" hallmark—the mark of the silversmith Claude Pillet, active in Lyon at the end of the 19th century. The crystal features the typical Baccarat cut decoration, with a radiant star at the bottom of each compartment and geometric facets that beautifully reflect the light. The refined and balanced mount consists of a central stem with a handle.
