Description
Originally designed for the "Exposition des Arts Décoratifs" in Paris in 1925, this timeless candy dish is an elegant and simple family heirloom. Each of these Lobmeyr glassworks results from the combined expertise of 24 meticulous pairs of hands and four stages of quality control. The Lobmeyr heirs have carried on their long-standing family’s craftsmanship and design legacy since 1823, inspecting every piece before they are released. The revered manufacturers have purveyed to the imperial courts of Austria, Sweden, Spain, Germany, and Greece as well as Siam, the Maharajah of Baroda and Mao Tse-Tung along with an international clientele of virtues. Today, the Austrian glass manufacturers’ work belongs to numerous private and institutional collections including those of the Cooper Hewitt Museum and the Museum of Les Arts Décoratifs among others.

Founded in 1823 by Joseph Lobmeyr, Viennese family-owned glass manufacturer J. & L. Lobmeyr has garnered worldwide recognition, and the highest regards of the design industry, for its impeccable craftsmanship, its significant design legacy, and its forward-thinking leadership from one generation to the next.
A visionary leader, third-generation Ludwig Lobmeyr was recognized for reviving the glass and crystal traditions of Bohemia and challenging the local glass masters to improve the techniques that drew the world’s attention to the region’s savoir-faire. Ludwig is responsible for some of the most iconic Lobmeyr collections, with timeless designs by such Viennese contemporaries as Josef Hoffmann and Adolf Loos – designs which today belong to the permanent collections of major museums around the world.
For six generations now, J. & L. Lobmeyr has significantly contributed to the design and craft legacy of Austria and Europe. The manufacturer has built a major portfolio of private projects, as well as institutional projects including the Schönbrunn Palace, the Vienna State Opera, the Kremlin, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the Metropolitan Opera House lights at the Lincoln Center in New York.
