In 1857, the German engraver and trader of Jewish origin Ludwig Moser established the family factory in Karlovy Vary, specializing in the manufacture of blown, cut, engraved or painted glass by hand, in pure crystal or in color. The fame of Moser crystal crosses borders thanks to international exhibitions, including Expo 58 in Brussels. Glass services, decorative objects of all kinds, glass engravings reproducing the paintings of famous painters are commissioned by eminent personalities from all over the world: popes, kings, emperors, shahs, heads of state and government, diplomats, which earns the Moser brand the attribute “glass of kings”. The perfection of artisanal handwork that makes each product an original, the quality of handmade engravings and ornamentations and the timeless style make the brand a family treasure of the Czech Republic and a leader on the world market. How did the Moser brand manage to conquer the world? In fact, it focuses exclusively on the production of lead-free glass. Although working with this raw material is difficult, the result is worth it, because lead-free glass stands out for its shine, luster and above all its hardness, which allows detailed cutting and engraving. Additionally, it gives designers the opportunity to treat Moser glass, which is typically very transparent, in gemstone colors. The resulting products are distinguished by their beauty and their combinations create astonishing optical effects.
