Drinking Set No. 4 Champagne Coupe – Muslin Glass
Couldn't load pickup availability
Lobmeyr’s most successful set – because it is timeless. Ludwig Lobmeyr designed it in 1856, when heavy, richly cut glass was in fashion, and dared something radically new: a simple form in muslin glass so thin that the rim measures less than a millimetre. Publications and museum collections still cite it as the origin of the modern wine glass, and it has been made without interruption since 1856. The champagne coupe is its most festive piece.
Dimensions: ⌀ 9.7 cm, H 10.6 cm.
Lobmeyr is a Viennese glass manufactory run by the same family for six generations. Every piece of muslin glass is mouth-blown into wet beechwood moulds, just 0.7 to 1.1 mm thin, and passes through at least 24 pairs of hands and four quality checks before it is sold – the last always by a family member.

Mouth-blown
Muslin glass, 0.7 to 1.1 mm thin
The glass is named after the light fabric muslin. It looks more fragile than it is: thanks to its inner elasticity it is surprisingly resilient. Because every piece is shaped by hand, each one is unique, with minimal irregularities.
Material: lead-free crystal glass (muslin glass)
Colour: crystal
Dimensions: ⌀ 9.7 cm, H 10.6 cm
Washing your Lobmeyr glasses by hand is much gentler and always preferable to the dishwasher. Use a little washing-up liquid and warm water, then rinse carefully so that no soap residue remains. Take particular care with the delicate muslin glass when drying.
As a rule, Lobmeyr glass is dishwasher-safe (glass programme!). However, glass contains very small amounts of water-soluble elements, so we recommend using as little detergent and rinse aid as possible to avoid damaging the glass surface. Please always open the dishwasher door once the drying cycle has finished so that hot residual water can escape as steam. If it stays on the glass in the warm, humid environment, it can cause irreversible clouding.
