The World of Baccarat and Phillipe Starck - Paris

La Cristal Room Baccarat in Paris is an ultra fabulous

restaurant on the restaurant scene. In 2003, Baccarat

opened its first flagship boutique store, crystal museum

and restaurant all under one roof of a huge building. This

building has already become a landmark in Paris and well

known on the social circuit in Paris.



The Baccarat House as it is dubbed, is designed by none

other than Phillipe Starck. The facade of the building

is certainly impressive, but not as impressive with the

millions dollars of crystal the inside is decked out in.

Inside you are greeted with one of the world's largest

crystal chandelier's. It is indeed a sight to behold.

You don't really realize the scale of this chair until

you take a photo of it next to the stair case.

Can you believe how reflective all of the surfaces are?

Here's a closer look at that awesome table.

A very impressive ballroom filled with awe inspiring

Baccarat chandeliers in the very decadent French style

of the past.

I would love to dine at their pink restaurant.

The decor is simply fantastic.

And of course, more chandeliers!

A look at their boutique from the outside.

Bet you didn't think it would be lit up in

Fuscia and Red at night. I didn't...

Stay tuned for Baccarat in Moscow on Wednesday.
