The Ambassador Low Martini Glass

Handcrafted by Lobmeyr, AUT, c. 2025.
Designed by Oswald Haerdtl, c. 1925.

The Ambassador Low Martini Glass is a masterpiece of modernist design, carefully crafted with clean lines, a generous opening, and remarkably thin crystal. Designed by Oswald Haerdtl, this glass combines functionality with artistry, offering an elegant vessel for enjoying cocktails. Its refined silhouette and delicate proportions make it a timeless addition to any table setting, embodying the lightness and sophistication of Haerdtl’s architectural vision.

Founded in 1823, Lobmeyr has become synonymous with the artistry of crystal. Their legacy is preserved in 18 volumes of highly artistic production drawings, donated to the Museum of Applied Arts by Ludwig Lobmeyr in 1883 to support the glass industry. Today, Lobmeyr continues to blend tradition with innovation, creating pieces that transcend mere functionality to become works of art.

“It has long captivated us in a quiet dance of light.”

Lobmeyr has become synonymous with the artistry of crystal, celebrated for its signature mousseline crystal—incredibly thin, between 0.7 and 1.1 mm, yet remarkably strong. This unique quality allows light to pass through in a way that feels almost weightless, creating an interplay of illumination often described as “living light.” Each piece radiates a quiet brilliance, transforming crystal into an experience of clarity, precision, and subtle sophistication.

Through six generations, Lobmeyr has built a legacy of collaboration with designers and architects, crafting crystal chandeliers for icons such as the Vienna State Opera and the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Whether illuminating a grand stage or held in quiet reflection, their works transcend mere objects, inviting us to appreciate the artistry of light and the enduring beauty of refined tradition.
