Paula Clear Lead-Free Crystal, Cut, Engraved Roses, 24-Carat Gold (Thin Line) Goblet Red Wine 270 Ml

The red wine glass from the Paula collection can thank a number of design influences for its timeless appearance. The motif of roses comes from French and Belgian Art Nouveau, whereas the look of the drinkware set was formed by the trends presented at the World’s Fairs in Brussels (1897) and Paris (1900). The more than 100 years that have passed haven’t taken anything away from the Paula collection’s ability to impress. The combination of hand-blown clear crystal, the cut, the engraving, and the gilding still delights lovers of Bohemian crystal to this day. Founded in 1857, Moser boasts a long tradition of superior artistic and technical standards in lead-free crystal. The quality of the crystal and perfection of Moser's hand cutting, engraving, gilding and brilliant colors are unsurpassed by any contemporary glass or crystal company in the world. Created by Ludwig Moser & Sons, the line originated as an engraving studio in the spa town of Karlsbad, located in Bohemia (now the Czech Republic), a region with deep roots in superior glass-making. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Moser developed its now famous technically perfect crystal production, employing a unique formula for producing a substance as hard as rock and as brilliant as lead crystal - but without using a trace of lead. This composition is very suitable for Moser's marvelous engravings, is ecologically sound and remains free of all concerns associated with lead. Moser's innovative techniques in cutting, engraving and coloring quickly won the line great acclaim at many prestigious international art exhibitions. Soon Moser became the proud possession of royalty, heads of state and well-known personalities throughout the world, an esteemed reputation that has held fast and continues to grow now in the 21st century. Today, Moser produces a wide range of stem and barware, holloware, accessories, giftware and art glass, all showcasing the superior quality, innovation and remarkable artistic expression for which the line has long been recognized.
