With its distinctive shape, dentelles and fleur-de-lys motif, the LOUIS XIII decanter is a true mark of elegance that elevate the LOUIS XIII tasting ritual .
The design of the LOUIS XIII decanter draws its inspiration from a flask that Paul-Émile Rémy Martin, founder of LOUIS XIII, owned. Held dear to a French chevalier until his last moments on the battlefield of Jarnac near Cognac, it was lost on the frontlines in 1569. Unearthed only centuries later, much like the Cognac Paul-Emile would soon reveal to the world, this glass artefact would become the mould for his LOUIS XIII decanter.
