A Celebration of Light, Legacy, and Cultural Harmony
First publication on May 16, 2025

To mark 60 years of Sino-French diplomatic relations, Baccarat unveils the Printemps Bleu Zenith Chandelier—an exquisite collaboration with celebrated Hong Kong architect and designer Steve Leung. This limited-edition creation unites French crystal mastery with the refined artistry of Chinese porcelain in a luminous tribute to heritage and harmony.

On May 28, Elite Graha Cipta will proudly present the Printemps Bleu Zenith Chandelier in Jakarta, offering an exclusive first look at Baccarat’s latest limited-edition masterpiece. With only 60 pieces available worldwide, this exceptional creation marks a rare moment in design and craftsmanship. Joining the event will be Mr. Clément Brunet-Moret, CEO of Baccarat Asia Pacific, underscoring the significance of this regional debut.

Leung reimagines Baccarat’s iconic Zenith chandelier through the lens of Qinghua Ci—Chinese blue and white pottery—drawing inspiration from Baccarat’s 19th-century archives, originally designed for the 1878 World Fair. The result is a graceful fusion of East and West: delicate cobalt motifs of swallows, blossoms, and butterflies shimmer among the crystal prisms, evoking spring’s renewal and the poetic balance of yin and yang.

For the first time, the Zenith chandelier incorporates porcelain elements into its classic silhouette—twisted arms, fleurs de lys, arrowed prisms, and octagon chains—signifying a new era in its storied evolution. Each chandelier features nine swallows, symbols of luck and eternity in Chinese culture, rendered in vibrant blue crystal.

With only 60 numbered pieces produced—each marked in gold and accompanied by a certificate of origin—Printemps Bleu stands as a rare collector’s piece and a radiant symbol of cross-cultural artistry. It debuts exclusively in Asia in July 2024, before its global release in 2025.
