The three decorative crystal plates, with their artfully crimped edges like a hand-sculpted pate brisรฉe, and the varnished silver-plated metal stand are both elegant and functional. The detailing etched into the underside of each Mille Nuits plate yields stunning optical effects.
The lines irradiating from the centre of each plate highlight the prismatic possibilities of the Baccarat crystal diffusing the light in nuanced ripples, evoking sumptuous glittering and the magnificent twinkling of stars.
Indeed Mille Nuits is a reference to the 1001 Tales of The Arabian Nights and evokes the magical and charmed Oriental Mediterranean universe with its Baroque and Venetian style.
