Hans Harald Rath followed in his father's footsteps at Lobmeyr from 1938 until 1968; during this time, he proposed many popular designs, including the stackable Alpha service of 1952. The collection is inspired by a baroque copper cup from MAK Vienna, hence the compact, balanced shape of this mouth-blown muslin glass water tumbler. A thorough process sees it pass through the hands of at least 24 people – the last of which is always a member of the family.
