These are our most exclusive pieces, testifying to creativity hand-in-hand with traditional craftsmanship. They demonstrate the unique savoir-faire of our almost-150-year-old crystal factory, whose products have found their way into museums around the world.

The designation of such small series opens up opportunities for tremendous individuality.
