This precisely cut sculpture, bonded while cold, will shine thanks to the unique luminous properties of Czech crystal, and thanks to its unusual colouring. The Admiral vase will be manufactured in a limited series of just 100 pieces.

Design and production
Unique colours for a masterful sculpture
Despite its substantial weight, this sculpture looks as light and airy as a real butterfly. All of this is thanks to the masterful design by its author, Jiří Šuhájek, and the craftsmanship of the experienced glassmakers of Moser. Its creator says “The union of colours and the graceful shape of the body create the impression of a huge personality with a great outreach. It spreads its wings symbolically to display all of its beauty. It will leave no one in doubt that it is among the chosen, among the most finely-cut jewels of the glassmaking craft.”
Hand-blown from environmentally friendly lead-free crystal
Hand cut and polished to a high gloss
Made using the glass underlay technique
