The Lobmeyr Ambassador Cocktail Glass is a small stemmed glass for drinks served straight up, such as a Manhattan, a sidecar or a Gibson. Its modest size keeps a cocktail cold to the last sip, and the slender stem keeps warm hands away from the bowl.
Each Ambassador glass is mouth-blown in muslin glass, the exceptionally thin, lead-free crystal Lobmeyr is known for. The walls are so fine that the glass feels almost weightless in the hand, yet the crystal is durable enough to enjoy often. Hand washing is recommended, though the glasses may go in a dishwasher on a glass program.
Oswald Haerdtl, one of the most versatile Austrian architects of the early twentieth century, created the Ambassador set for the 1925 Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, the exhibition that gave Art Deco its name. It remains a highlight of his long collaboration with Lobmeyr, and pieces from the original series are held by the Museum of Modern Art and Cooper Hewitt in New York. Lobmeyr was founded in Vienna in 1823 and is still family-run in its sixth generation.
