Moser Ruby Glass Pillow Vase

About the Item

Gilt and Enamel Red Pillow Vase Moser Late 19th Century A masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship, this exquisite Moser pillow vase dazzles with its rich ruby glass and intricate gilded detailing. Enamel oak leaves and relief-molded acorns form a vibrant foliate motif with delicate gilt insect details. The majestic oak branches stretch across the surface with exceptional coloring. Resting on gilt rocaille feet, this stunning creation exemplifies Moser’s technical brilliance. Encouraged by the Austro-Hungarian Governments, Ludwig Moser quickly excelled as a glass artist while completing an apprenticeship under accomplished artist O.J. Mattoni. Through working with the Health Spa at Karlsbad, producing and decorating glassware to serve the healing waters found at the spa, Moser quickly acquired a following and demand for his work. By 1857, Moser was able to open his shop full of bright, glistening glass creations. Moser quickly acquired global nobility as his clientele and began displaying his work at exhibitions around the world, earning the moniker "Glass of Kings." Some of his well-known patrons include Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain, King Faisal of Saudi Arabia, Pope Pius XI and King Farouk of Egypt. 6 1/2" high x 7" wide x 5 1/4" deep
