About the workThis drinking set has a glass for every conceivable drink. Its design is more restrained than that of the nature-inspired Art Nouveau movement prevalent in Europe around 1900. The glasses foreshadow the style with which the Wiener Werkstätte (Vienna Workshop) would become famous a few years later. The graphic artist and designer Koloman Moser was one of the founding members of the Vienna Secession in 1897 and co-founded the Wiener Werkstätte in 1903.
