Description:

Add a touch of timeless European elegance to your table with this beautiful set of five vintage Luminarc wine glasses, featuring striking cobalt blue stems and bases with rich gold and blue Art Deco-inspired decoration.

These elegant glasses were produced by Luminarc France during the 1980s and feature the Nostalgie Orient – Istanbul Express motif, celebrating the glamour of Europe’s most famous luxury train. The design is believed to have been created for the Japanese market during the height of Japan’s Bubble Era, when interest in the Orient Express was rekindled by the famous 1988 Orient Express ’88 tour that brought original luxury train cars to Japan.

While we cannot confirm whether this set was officially produced for that event, it beautifully captures the romance, sophistication, and Art Deco styling associated with the legendary train and has become a sought-after decorative collectible.

Perfect For:

  • Orient Express enthusiasts
  • Railway memorabilia collectors
  • Art Deco collectors
  • Vintage French glass collectors
  • Elegant home décor
  • Special occasion entertaining

Condition:

Excellent vintage condition.

All five glasses are clean and bright with no chips, cracks, or repairs found upon inspection. The gold decoration remains vibrant, and the cobalt blue stems retain their rich original colour.
