About us
J. & L. Lobmeyr was founded in Vienna in 1823 by Joseph Lobmeyr—exactly 200 years ago. We quickly became purveyor to the Imperial Court. A love of the material, an emotional relationship to the product, and personal commitment has defined each generation. Lobmeyr glasses are still blown, cut, engraved, and polished entirely by hand. All of our lighting products are manufactured at our atelier workshops in the heart of Vienna. The Lobmeyr company focuses on a contemporary interpretation of glass and light, and never stops cultivating its heritage. The old inspires the new, and traditional knowledge facilitates innovation. Together with designers like Josef Hoffmann and Adolf Loos in the past, and today Ted Muehling, formafantasma, and Michael Anastassiades among others, we create fine handmade crystal and chandeliers that are appreciated by connoisseurs all over the world.

The Klainguti Cocktail
#Repost - @mobilita.studio
In 1826 four brothers, confectioners from the Swiss town Pontresina close to St. Moritz, came to the Italian port city Genoa. The intention was work and save up money to emigrate and seek their fortune in America. Being successful and much appreciated in their new, supposed to be temporary home country, the Klainguti brothers decided to stay in Italy and set up a pastry shop in Genoa instead. In 1828 they opened Fratelli Klainguti on Piazza Soziglia in the heart of the old town in Genoa. The brothers soon became a beloved part of the city, especially among high society.
One of the Klainguti inventions is a brioche they created for their most famous customer, Giuseppe Verdi. It was even named it after Verdi’s opera Falstaff and it was so well received by Verdi himself that he left Klainguti a thank you note reading: “Dear Klainguti, thanks for the Falstaff. Superb... much better than mine!”
In the late 19th century Italian pasticcerie, pastry shops, began transforming and adopting to the new Italian café culture, serving coffee and alcoholic beverages as well as lighter meals. This was a shift that spread across Italy and Fratelli Klainguti were part of this change.
The creation of the Klainguti cocktail is lost in history but it is very much a part of the Italian cocktail culture. Probably made sometime during the 20th century it has a lot in common with other classic Italian cocktails. You could say that the Klainguti Cocktail is like a Negroni Sbagliato where the bartender didn’t use Prosecco instead of the gin but instead used both. Where the cocktail stands out is with the addition of Cointreau a product that doesn’t generally feature in the true Italian classics.
THE DESIGNER
The glass, which is actually a candy dish, was designed in 1925 by the Austrian designer Oswald Haerdtl.

Is this the original Martini glass?
#Repost - @alicelascelles
That’s the question I’m asking in @wallpapermag on the 100th anniversary of the debut of @lobmeyr ‘s ‘Ambassador’ collection at Paris’s Exposition des Arts Decoratifs (the 1925 design fair which coined the term ‘Art Deco’).
The Martini, of course, is more than 100 years old. But Lobmeyr’s glass (conceived by the Austrian architect Oswald Haerdtl) marked a watershed moment for glass design, stripping away all the curves and embellishment that had been fashionable before and taking the art of glass-blowing to the absolute edge.
This glass was actually originally (and perhaps rather misguidedly) designed for champagne but was quickly adopted for the Martini, spawning a multitude of increasingly angular, Y-shaped imitations, and paving the way for a silhouette that’s so iconic today it even has its own emoji. (And it’s still a Lobmeyr best-seller).
Thank you Wallpaper* for letting me pursue my idea – it was an absolute dream to research. Seeing Haerdtl’s original drawings at the Lobmeyr archive in Vienna was a spine-tingling moment. And riffing on design and culture (and Martinis of course!) with Met curator @abraham_thomas1977 , @remy_savage_ , @giorgio_bar_giani , Dave Wondrich, @kimuraglass_asia @richard_brendon and many more was about as close to heaven as my job gets. There are so many more layers to this story – if anybody wants to commission a book on the subject I am here!
Out now in the August issue of Wallpaper magazine and on-line in due course - will put the link in my bio when it goes live. 🍸
