Rémy Martin VSOP Saint Graal
This is the exquisite Rémy Martin V.S.O.P. Saint Graal, bottled in a mouth-blown decanter with antique sterling overlay glass. Released in 1962/63 this has become an incredible sought-after collectible item. The decanter has never been unwrapped which is extremely rare.
Knut Bergkvist developed the graal technique in 1916. He was inspired by the French art nouveau glass of Daum and Gallé of that time. In the graal technique a colored layer of glass is encased by a colored layer of glass. The glass is then allowed to cool down and when it is cold the design is applied by engraving or etching. The obtained “stock” of “blank” piece of glass is then carefully reheated and blown into its final shape. During this process the sharp edges of the design become smooth and the motive becomes more soft and blurred, giving it its typical Graal aspect.
