Daniel Libeskind Adds an Architectural Angle to Hennessy?s 300th Anniversary Decanter
Daniel Libeskind's original Baccarat crystal decanter suspended liquid design is updated with a special embellishments in celebration of the cognac distiller founder's 300th anniversary.
Daniel Libeskind’s work in architecture and urban design, professionally and academically, has always reflected a mind whose curiosities extend well beyond the field of his own sometimes insular profession. This propensity to maintain a culturally holistic perspective makes for an ideal collaborator. And it is this trait that brought together the architect with fine spirits maker Hennessy in 2022 for the design of a sharply angled and asymmetrical bottle celebrating the cognac distiller’s founder in namesake. The design has returned with a few special embellishments in the form of the Richard Hennessy Magnum. The special 300th anniversary magnum decanter is accompanied by two Richard Hennessy glasses in cut crystal, a pipette, and holder to complete the special edition set.
Reflecting the architect’s signature style, Libeskind?s original geometric design for the Hennessy decanter was realized in Baccarat crystal, and so too is Hennessy’s 300th anniversary edition. Merging sharp angles with organic forms, Libeskind?s aim was not just to create a vessel for the precious amber-hued cognac, but also to operate as a storytelling object of the brand’s history. Thus each facet of the decanter catches light differently, symbolizing the many eras and milestones...
