This exquisite coupe glass from Nachtmann, Germany’s renowned crystal manufacturer, exemplifies the height of European glass artistry. Each piece features a finely cut-to-clear overlay design, where a layer of richly colored crystal — in ruby red is expertly hand-cut to reveal the clear crystal beneath.
The bowl is intricately engraved with floral and geometric motifs, combining organic curves with faceted precision. The faceted stem and ribbed base enhance the glass’s luminous quality, refracting light to create a play of brilliance and depth.
This design represents Nachtmann’s classic postwar era craftsmanship, balancing traditional Bohemian-inspired engraving with the German mastery of optical clarity and form. The coupe’s generous shape and decorative artistry make it both a functional glassware piece and a sculptural object of refined.
