Note: Created in 1928, the Tommy model has become one of the most famous signatures of the Saint-Louis crystal glassworks. Recognizable by its richly faceted cut featuring stars, bevels, and diamonds, it exemplifies the craftsmanship of the master glassmakers at the factory founded in 1586. Its name pays tribute to Thomas “Tommy” Warren, an American soldier who fought alongside France during World War I. Considered one of the great classics of French crystal, the Tommy model remains today the historic benchmark of Saint-Louis.
