Moser Lady Hamilton Water Glass 360 ml – Hand-Made Czech Crystal
The Moser Lady Hamilton Water Glass 360 ml is a crystal water glass from the Moser Lady Hamilton collection, hand-blown and hand-cut from lead-free crystal at the Moser glassworks in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic, where Moser has made crystal since 1857.
Inspired by the beauty of Emma Hamilton
The water glass from the Lady Hamilton drinkware collection is truly extraordinary. Just like the other pieces in this drinkware set, it was conceived nearly 100 years ago as a tribute to the woman with a powerful fate – Emma Hamilton – and ever since, it’s enjoyed the continuous favor of the most demanding customers. This glass has everything that brought this collection so much notoriety: the unique papal cut, the radiance of lead-free crystal, and the flawlessly thin rim, perfect for sipping drinks. The elegance of this exclusive set caught the attention of the entire world, and the likes of the Sultan of Morocco Muhammad V, the Iranian Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, and the Maharaja of Travancore all became owners. 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.
- Hand-blown from environmentally friendly lead-free crystal
- Hand-cut and polished to a high gloss
Moser crystal water glasses can be matched with the wine and champagne glasses of the same collection for a complete table setting.

About the Moser Lady Hamilton collection
The Lady Hamilton drinkware collection is truly extraordinary. It was conceived nearly 100 years ago as a tribute to the beautiful woman with a powerful fate – Emma Hamilton – and ever since, it’s enjoyed the continuous favor of the most demanding customers from all over the world. For instance, the Sultan of Morocco Muhammad V, the Iranian Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, and the Maharaja of Travancore all became owners of this exclusive set.
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.
