This extraordinary crystal carafe got its name from the delicate engraving that covers it. The decor of roses gives the edges of the vessel a softer look, while the rose or green underlay is a reminder of Nature, so admired by the Art Nouveau designers. This romantic carafe with a bottle stopper is the perfect gift for any liqueur enthusiast.

Design and Production
Flowers growing in crystal glass
Even though these vases and carafes are more than a hundred years old, time has taken none of their elegance. This should be no surprise, as Art Nouveau gave them graceful proportions, harmonic silhouettes and subtle ornamentation. They are adorned with popular floral motifs which, in keeping with the style of the era, twist around the vase and dive deep into the crystal mass.

Designer
Moser
Moser's art nouveau vases with floral motifs are a beautiful example of the skills of the Carlsbad glassmakers, cutters and engravers. They've been pushing the boundaries of perfection ever since the turn of the 19th and 20th century, when art nouveau breathed fresh life into all forms of art. The Moser vases, first called "Moderne Plastik" and later "Eckentiefgravur", were admired at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1900, as well as at the exhibitions of London, Turin and St. Louis. The hand-cut, hand-engraved glass has remained popular till the present day.
