Alpha is an iconic Lobmeyr design from 1952 by Hans Harald Rath. The series is based on Baroque copper beakers from the Museum of Fine Arts in Vienna and then updated to reflect the 1950s lifestyle. To achieve the goal of elegance yet practical function, the Alpha series is made from Lobmeyr's renowned ultra-thin, mouth-blown glass into wooden forms. Each glass is remarkably resilient yet incredibly delicate.
