In the world of luxury goods, Baccarat has to be the most iconic and historical brand of all time, considering it witnessed and survived the French Revolution era. Since they emerged in 1764, they have established themselves as the leading crystal glass manufacturer, producing clear, lustrous, lead-based glass products for more than two centuries. Their products are a statement–from beautiful chandeliers to the much-talked-about Baccarat Rouge–and have attracted many patrons from across the world while keeping up with styles, trends, and techniques. But while they are stunning, and we wouldn't love anything more than having them as part of our glassware or decor collection (and taking them out only on extra special occasions–cc mom energy), they do demand a hefty portion of one's paycheck. Their classic tumblers are priced at 480 Euros (INR 42,798), and unfortunately, they're not even available in India. So, to save your penny and your time, as you cannot wait around for your NRI cousin to get you some glassware, we went on a hunt and found eight brands that provide the same elegance and look as Baccarats', and wouldn't require you to take out a loan.
