Koloman Moser kept to his principle of bringing art and daily life together. He designed delicate glass objects with various shapes and colors. This table service was produced by the Bohemian glass foundry Meyr’s Neffe for E. Bakalowits & Söhne with Moser’s characteristic geometric designs. The animated spherical decorations, reminiscent of air bubbles rising to the surface in the water, were made while casting.
