The Brilliance of Lobmeyr Crystal

The Brilliance of Lobmeyr Crystal

Two Centuries of Viennese Elegance, Now at BON TON goods

In the rarefied world of European design, certain names are spoken with a particular kind of reverence. One of them is Lobmeyr.

Founded in Vienna in 1823, J. & L. Lobmeyr has shaped the aesthetic of refinement for over two centuries, crafting objects of sublime clarity and grace. Still family-run after six generations, the house remains at the forefront of crystal design: historic, yet perpetually modern.

We are honored to include a considered selection of Lobmeyr vases in the BON TON goods collection.

A Tradition Etched in Light

The history of Lobmeyr reads like a love letter to craftsmanship and collaboration. From its early days as purveyor to the Imperial Court of Austria, to its creative partnerships with luminaries of the Wiener Werkstätte such as Josef Hoffmann and Adolf Loos, Lobmeyr has long occupied a unique place where utility meets art.

Today, the tradition continues through thoughtful design relationships with Ted Muehling, formafantasma, Michael Anastassiades, and others—each bringing a contemporary resonance to Lobmeyr’s centuries-old techniques.

Every piece—whether a slender water glass or a sculptural vase—is mouth-blown, cut, engraved, and polished entirely by hand in Vienna. Some are so light they seem to float; all are unmistakably profound in their purpose.

More Than Objects: A Way of Living

To hold a Lobmeyr glass is to feel history made tangible. These are not showpieces, though they are worthy of display. They are meant to be used—to elevate the rituals of daily life with restraint, beauty, and intention.

At BON TON goods, our current selection includes timeless pieces from Lobmeyr’s most beloved collections: vases that embody grace, precision, and brilliance.

These are heirlooms in waiting—treasured by collectors and connoisseurs, beloved by those who understand the power of objects made with care.

Available In-Shop and By Special Request

Our offering of Lobmeyr is available in-shop and by special order only. We invite you to experience them in person at our Malmö location. Whether for gifting, collecting, or daily ritual, we will gladly guide you through our selection or assist in sourcing pieces beyond what is shown.

As with the finest things, Lobmeyr is best discovered slowly—with care, curiosity, and awe.
