History of the Verreire

La Cristallerie Moser is a manufacturer of high-quality luxury glass based in Karlsbad (Karlovy Vary), Czech Republic, in Bohemia.

The company is renowned for its delicate stemware, decorative glassware items (such as vases, ashtrays, candlesticks), luxury glass gifts, and various art engravings. It is for its quality that Moser is one of the most collected decorative glasses of the 20th century. They have been used everywhere, from palaces to local restaurants.

The original company of Ludwig Moser & Söhne, founded in 1857 by Ludwig Moser (1833-1916) in Karlsbad, is a glassworks workshop, initially polishing and engraving glass and later designing and creating objects in colorless and decorated glass of the highest quality.

The engraving of raw glasses by Loetz, Meyr's Neffe, and Harrachov was carried out by the workshop at the very beginning. During the 1873 Vienna International Exhibition, it received a medal. Ludwig took over a glass manufacturing company in Meierhofen near Karlsbad in 1893 to offer a complete glassmaking service employing 400 people, under the name Karlsbaderglasindustrie Gesellschaft Ludwig Moser & Söhne, where his sons Gustav and also work.
