Design and production
When opal flatters the crystal
In the same way hot days change into the frosty ones over the course of the year, the Four Seasons collection works with contrasts in perfect harmony. Both the traditional Moser colours and clear hand-cut crystal join with opals, while the round inner shapes are framed with a precise outer cut. This collection’s origin is in the desire to experiment: world-renowned glass designer Jiří Šuhájek took a creative approach to the unique colours of the Moser crystal glass and infused them with new spirit. This way, your home can boast a vase that unites traditional glassworking craft with modern shapes and colouring.
