Description
An exceptional and authentic antique Moser Karlsbad art glass garniture set dating to circa 1890–1905. The set consists of two signed baluster vases and a coordinating center spill vase, all executed in rich cobalt blue glass with lavish hand-applied gilding and raised enamel floral decoration.
Produced in Karlovy Vary (Karlsbad), Bohemia, now in the present-day Czech Republic.
The larger vases retain hand-engraved "Moser" signatures to the polished pontil, confirming production by the renowned Moser glassworks of Karlovy Vary (formerly Karlsbad), the premier luxury glass manufacturer of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Each piece features finely detailed white blossoms with soft pastel centers and trailing foliage painted over matte gilt panels, accented with classical gilt ornamentation in the Louis XVI taste. The smaller central vessel is a traditional spill vase, historically used on mantels to hold tapers or calling cards.
Moser garniture sets were produced in limited quantities and were intended for formal Victorian and Edwardian interiors, displayed on mantels, pianos, or grand sideboards. Complete surviving sets are increasingly scarce.
A highly decorative and collectible display set suitable for both traditional and modern interiors.
