Baccarat and Hong Kong Designer Steve Leung Have Teamed Up to Create an Exquisite Chandelier

The fabulous fusion of porcelain and crystals marks 260 years of Baccarat and 60 years of Sino-French diplomacy.

Multi-hyphenate Renaissance man Steve Leung needs little introduction. Be it his super yachts, vacation homes, interior designs, and collaborations, Leung’s prolific portfolio has been featured on Robb Report Hong Kong time and again. Adding one more arrow to his quiver, the famed architect and designer has just unveiled his latest design in collaboration with crystal-maker Baccarat: the Printemps Bleu Zenith Chandelier, a grand lighting fixture.

Featuring crystals cut with precision and chinoiserie artwork meticulously painted on fine porcelain, it’s a nod to the heritage of both East and West. It’s a phenomenal achievement, tying in two disparate cultures united through refined craftsmanship and brave innovation. As the head of design of his eponymous label, Steve Leung Design Group (SLD), Leung is the first Chinese designer to collaborate with Baccarat. One hopes Leung’s collaboration with the famed French luxury house paves the way for more cross-cultural design endeavours, as this first iteration is a piece of art.
