THE DIOR AMPHORA
From 1949, Christian Dior paired his perfumes with the nobility of crystal and the craftsmanship of the Baccarat workshops. The famous glassworks in Lorraine created the label's legendary amphora, a luxurious bottle for its exceptional perfumes. White and gold, finely chiseled, its shape is at the same time round and slender. It symbolizes the femininity that Christian Dior's New Look celebrated. The fruit of the expert work of Baccarat's virtuoso glassmakers is the bottle for J'adore, today adopted by women the world over.
At Baccarat, as at the Dior workshops, manual work at the service of beauty demands a strong knowledge of ancient techniques and centuries-old manual skills.
