The Lady Hamilton drinkware collection was conceived in 1934, and ever since, it’s enjoyed the continuous favour of the most demanding customers from all over the world. It was created for our glassworks by Prof. Heinrich Hussmann as a tribute to the beautiful woman with a powerful fate – Emma Hamilton. The owners of this luxurious set include the likes of the Sultan of Morroco Muhammad V, the Iranian Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, and the Maharaja of Travancore. Upon request, we’d be happy to adorn the glass with oroplastic; you can choose between 24-karat gold and high-grade platinum.

Design and production
THE ONLY PAPAL CUT TECHNIQUE IN THE WORLD
The collection is adorned by the papal cut, a unique method requiring the surfaces’ proportions, depths, and widths to be flawlessly upheld. The second distinct component is the chalice, which is thick at the bottom but extraordinarily thin towards the rim. Only the best – the masters at the Moser glassworks – are capable of joining these two into a single, flawless piece. The collection became so popular that many copies using all sorts of materials began to appear. However, there has only ever been one true Lady Hamilton.

Designer
Moser
Emma Hamilton, wife to British diplomat William Hamilton, was the inspiration for this drinkware set of glasses, decanter, and water jug. Her beauty was so impactful that painters captured her likeness on their canvases and Alexandre Dumas Senior even dedicated an entire novel to her incredible life. At the beginning of the 20th century, under the guidance of Prof. Heinrich Hussmann, designers from the Moser glassworks then injected the memory of this one-of-a-kind woman into the collection that never ages.
