Pitcher no.7887 from the arabian series

Design: Machytka & Schmoranz, 1877
As early as 1848/49, Ludwig Lobmeyr delivered chandeliers to the palace of the Khedive in Cairo. Starting in the 1870s, a significant collection of valuable glass objects was created, mainly in collaboration with architects and Orient experts Franz and Gustav Schmoranz. Delightful, abstract patterns in colorful enamel painting and gold were applied to the hand-blown, cut vases and plates. In commemoration of an exhibition at the „Museum of Islamic Civilisation“ in Sharjah/UAE 2015, a pitcher from the “Arabian Series” has been put back into production.

Drinking Set No. 54 “with Renaissance engraving”

Design: Ludwig Lobmeyr, ca. 1860
Lobmeyr Drinking Set No. 54 is one of the early typical Lobmeyr designs; it was shown at the second world exhibition in London, 1862. The Set is also called “Miramare”, as it was commissioned by the Austrian archduke Ferdinand Maximilian – the later emperor Maximilian of Mexico- for his castle of the same name near Trieste on the Adriatic coast. This original glassware together with the matching porcelain set are still to be seen in Vienna´s Imperial Household Museum, the “Wiener Hofsilber- und –tafelkammer”.
Other members of the Imperial family commissioned this design too – additionally engraved with the Austrian crest and the Habsburg crown.
In the 1860ies, the period of Historicism it was fashionable to reinterpret styles from the past. In this case the engraving refers to the ornamental style of the Renaissance, which was wide spread during the historicist period in Vienna, creating a much more airy effect compared to contemporaneous movements in other parts of Europe.
The glasses are mouth blown and handmade, hand cut and hand polished and engraved in the most precious technique of copper wheel engraving.
