We offer here a magnificent centerpiece executed by J. & L. Lobmeyr from Vienna. This object was designed in 1901 by Gustav Schneider and it is made out of crystal glass.The glass is cut out uprisingly and the sides are very delicately engraved with sea animals and -plants. The quality of this piece clearly resembles what J. & L. Lobmeyr is famous for and why this company is still very succesfull: pristine glass craftmanship.

On the last picture you can see the copy from the Book "Glas des Jugednstils" (Art Nouveau Glass) by Waltraud Neuwirth that shows a simmilar object of the series.
