History of the Moser glassworks is
associated with the name of Ludwig
Moser (1833 - 1916), one of the most
outstanding personalities of glass
manufacturing in the world. He first
opened his own shop and engraver´s
workshop in the centre of Karlovy Vary
and in the same town in 1893 he starts
production in his own glass workshop,
which has been operating successfully
until today.
Within a short time, he gained the
reputation as the most prestigious
producer of crystal in the Austrian-
Hungarian monarchy. The titles of the
court suppliers of emperor Franz Joseph
I (1873), Persian shah Musaffereddine
(1901) and king Edward VII of England
(1908) further increased the reputation
of the crystal and the interest of other
politicians and emperors.
