Cristal D’Arques – Durand was one of France’s premier glassmakers, celebrated for their innovation in colored pressed and cut crystal during the late 20th century. Their “Antique Sapphire” line gained popularity among collectors and homemakers alike for its rich jewel-tone cobalt color and the way it caught light beautifully in both casual and formal settings.

Cobalt glass has been produced since the 18th century, but saw a revival in popularity in the 1970s and 1980s, when vibrant glassware became a focal point of eclectic dining and entertaining. Today, these bowls are sought after for their blend of function, artistry, and vintage charm.
