About the Item

Faceted panels and deep wheel-carved blossoms define this petite suite of six Bohemian liqueur glasses. Hand-blown in lead crystal tinted with a rich amethyst hue, each vessel tapers gently from a polished rim toward a thick, solid base. The saturated violet-purple tone concentrates prominently around the upper rim and softly disperses downwards, creating an attractive graduated transition into the clear glass lower section. The exterior of each tumbler is decorated with fine intaglio engraving, depicting blooming floral heads with detailed radiating petals alongside slender stems and naturalistic veined leaves. The wheel-cut matte texturing of the frosted botanicals stands out in crisp relief against the glossy, polished facets of the amethyst ground. Broad planar flutes run vertically around the faceted circumference, catching directional light and providing a secure, comfortable grip. Production of this refined glassware is characteristic of the Bohemian glassmaking tradition centered in Karlsbad, where the Moser workshops perfected shaded coloured crystal and intaglio cutting techniques around 1905. While typical of high-grade luxury barware of that era, the delicate scale and botanical subject matter also reflect the naturalistic Jugendstil and early twentieth-century decorative aesthetic embraced by leading central European glassworks. Each glass stands approximately 6 cm in height, an ideal miniature proportion for serving digestifs, cordials, or schnapps. The suite survives in very good antique order, with five glasses completely free of chips or cracks and one displaying a tiny fleabite nick along the rim. They form an elegant, well-preserved group equally suited to fine cabinet display or occasional table use. We ship internationally, tracked.
