Cristal glass is most commonly associated with heavy, densely cut forms and is often underestimated due to its bourgeois connotations. A good designer is able to propose a modern design even in this particular technology. In the 1990s, lead glass decorated with minimalistic, modern cuts emerged. Piotr Talma designed several sets alluding to historical style, in this case being clearly inspired by soaring gothic architecture.
