About the Item

A large rare early Victorian Harrach Glatt Iris vase made for Lobmeyr by Harrach, With an iridised petrol finish and black and white stylised enamelling. The Glatt iris range was the first commercially make iridised glass copying the look of 'found' roman glass. The Technique was acquired by J & L Lobmeyr and initially made by Meyr's Neffe but they had problems producing it, so Lobmeyr quickly moved their commission to Harrach -who managed to make it exceptionally well. Harrach has been the backbone of Bohemian, and possibly European, glass for the last 300 years. It proudly celebrates its tri-centenary in 2012. Before Ludwig Moser was allowed to have his own Glassworks he, like almost everyone else in the region, bought his blanks from Harrach. In fact we will probably never know how much glass, supposedly made my other great glass makers of Europe, were in fact made and finished in the Harrach Glassworks. We do know that vast ranges of Legras was made by Harrach, probably under licence and possibly the majority of the glass we think of as Fratelli Tosso was also made by Harrach. British Glass historians have only just started to review 19th century English glass and reallocate many of the high points to Harrach. Sadly neglected over the years, Harrach made some of the greatest glass of the 19th and 20th century. Much of their production has, not surprisingly, been often been wrongly attributed.
