The IRDS Glass Studio came to us with an unusual creative idea: Create a drinkware set that would balance the complicated nature of our era with its simplicity. To this end, minimalistic, smooth walls that distinguish the purity of the Moser crystal are typical for this collection. The balanced proportions are then supplemented by the energetic cut. Even though the glasses and decanter in this collection aren’t adorned with any engravings or expensive metal, they still possess a particularly prestigious appeal. Fans of coloured glass will also be delighted in their selection of the typical Moser colour options.

When colour resonates with an idea
“Working with the Moser colours is wonderful, and also challenging. They’re like senses or frank personalities. The hardest part is ensuring the shape and colours resonate with the intended essence,” say the authors from the IRDS Glass Studio, explaining the concept of their design. With the Sonnet Collection, they were unequivocally successful in their efforts. The drinkware collection has its own distinctive style that highlights the typical shades of Carlsbad crystal. Not only can you combine the glasses with various types of drinks, but the same goes for mixing the options of clear glass with its more tinted variations.
