Baccarat: what it’s actually made from

Every Baccarat product we have scored, with the maker’s own words about materials and what those words leave out. Average across the range: 54.0 out of 100.

We have scored 4 Baccarat products. They average 54.0 out of 100 on materials, and the spread between the best and worst is 64 points.

Of those 4: 2 name the surface that touches food at least to a material family; 4 state a country of manufacture; 0 have a materials claim backed by anything other than the maker’s own word.

That spread is the thing worth noticing. The same company publishes enough about Baccarat iconiX 4 Piece Stainless Steel Set for it to score 85, and so little about Baccarat Granite 4 Piece Non-Stick Set that it scores 21. Disclosure here is a per-product decision, not a house style.

Where these sit on the site

Baccarat appears in Cookware. The Australian and American editions are scored the same way, so a product marked AU and one marked US are directly comparable.
