The Baccarat Zoo reinvents the art of collecting animals while giving them a real function. Receptacle or Art Toy, every character exudes its optimistic narrative strength, full of magic and imagination. Jaime Hayón

Halfway between a glamorous sweet box and a decorative object, Baccarat Zoo combines the sparkle of crystal with tinted porcelain to create a playful menagerie of collectable creatures.
Available in six styles, the Baccarat Zoo creatures play with the most famous codes and principles of crystal sizing. Jaime Hayón continues for Baccarat his innovative work with ceramics by forging an alliance between crystal and porcelain that has been treated to have a mat finish on the outside and a glossy finish on the inside.

The Duck
Domestic and humorous, the Duck is deployed by its set of textures. Coming in clear crystal engraved with a clover pattern on a white pedestal with metallic gold inside or in mint green crystal on top of a tone on tone base, it seems emerging from its nest, its beak out of the water, its feathers superimposed.

The Monkey
In a clear crystal version with white base and a gold foil inside, the Monkey is directly portrayed from rice grain, pontil and diamond patterns. With its wall-eyes, signed by a pendant onto the right one, the symbolic primate inspires intelligence and wisdom, crafty till perfection.

The Bear
In flat cut clear crystal and white honeycomb base or in honey-colored crystal mounted on a caramel socle, the Bear recalls to everyone his invincible reputation as honey hunter. With its stocky body and its smooth fur, it embodies more than ever power and renewal. The pieces will be on sale especially at The Temporium in Seven Dials, Covent Garden, London from 1st to 24th December
