This Moser crystal bonbonniere from the 1960s exemplifies the glassmaking artistry of Karlovy Vary, a region renowned for its cutting traditions. Crafted from fine faceted crystal, the piece features a geometric, low and wide polygonal form in a very light, cool violet hue with a subtle lavender tint. Each plane is precisely cut, with sharply defined edges and a highly polished, glossy surface that intensifies the brilliance and clarity of the glass. The prismatic facets create a play of light and reflections, while the perfectly fitting lid and harmonious symmetry reflect the mid-century modern approach—clean lines, balanced proportions, and a lack of superfluous decoration. The bonbonniere is in excellent condition: the surface is smooth, free from scratches, chips, or signs of wear.
This vessel resonates with the spirit of the 1960s—a period when crystal glassware became not only utilitarian but also a statement of contemporary elegance. Its geometric silhouette and cool tone evoke the atmosphere of modernist interiors, where transparency and technical perfection were celebrated. Each facet tells the story of Bohemian craftsmen skilled enough to capture and refract light within a single object, animating the interior with gentle prismatic highlights at every glance or touch.
The bonbonniere may be displayed on a console or low coffee table in the living room, where daylight will accentuate its crystalline character. It harmonizes well both on its own and in dialogue with other glass or silver accents—perhaps set beside a modernist candlestick or a minimalist bowl. Interiors in the spirit of mid-century modern, as well as more eclectic collector's spaces, would benefit from its refined lightness. Pairing it with cool
