Technical Details

Width (including handle): 20 cm
Weight: 1.222 g (1.22 kg) – An important weight that certifies the density and purity of the crystal.

Description and Processing
The carafe is distinguished by a complex combination of grinding techniques, executed with millimeter precision.
Diamond Cut Band: At the center of the body, a rich band engraved with small raised diamonds stands out, breaking up the light into prismatic reflections.
Fluted Base: The lower part is crafted with broad vertical concave facets, giving the structure a sense of dynamism and elegance.
Lunette (Thumbprint) Cut: Refined circular indentations adorn the connections between the different molded sections.
Pelican Beak and Ergonomic Handle: The mouth is finished with a shiny, clean cut; the handle, applied hot, features a clean line typical of Moser's neoclassical-modern taste.
Note for Collectors – Authenticity:
The object bears no signature, a characteristic consistent with Moser production prior to 1936, the year when the company began systematically acid-marking its pieces. The attribution is confirmed by the catalog design of the period, the cutting technique, and the unmistakable brilliance of the Moser crystal.
