Designed in 1936 by Otto Tauschek, a graphic artist, painter and porcelain designer, Mozart embodies the refinements of the Rococo style and Classicism with its delicate bowl and pearl engraved rim.
The crystal whisky glass from the Mozart collection may give off an impression of simplicity, however, both experienced hands and blowing techniques are required during its production. The glass is hand blown and adorned with a light pearl cut, as was classically designed by its creator, Otto Tauschek. With his fusion of rococo forms and a modern concept of glass, Tauschek’s work aroused a well-deserved response in its time. A few owners of this drinkware set include the Iranian Shah Mohamed Reza Pahlavi, the Moroccan sultan Muhammad V, the maharajah of Hyderabad, and the Egyptian king Fuad.
In memory of the famous composer
Rococo and modern styles combined? Why ever not? When designing the Mozart drinking collection, designer Otto Tauschek drew inspiration from the great music composer, however, choosing to significantly simplify the period décor. Thus a timeless drinking collection was born, which, right from the moment it was placed on the market in the 1930s, gained many an admirer. Today it remains one of the most popular sets of cut crystal.
