New in the gallery ✨

A newly arrived vase by Johann Loetz Witwe, created around 1903 in the striking PG 3/430 decoration.

Its warm orange ground is enlivened by delicate, feather-like iridescent threads that seem to shift with every movement of light. The elongated silhouette, rising from a softly rounded base, gives the piece an elegant verticality — refined, vibrant, and unmistakably Loetz.

A beautiful example of Jugendstil glass, where color, surface, and form come together in a quietly spectacular way.

Some objects show us just how much the world has changed.

A vase still feels familiar: it can hold flowers, shape a room — and in the case of Loetz, it is always an artwork in glass. But an inkwell and a pounce pot belong to a slower world of letters, ink, and carefully dried lines.

Today, this exceptional Loetz writing set and candlestick no longer need to serve their original purpose to be meaningful. Their iridescent surfaces, refined color transitions, and masterful ex*****on make them captivating works of art in glass — objects that let us dream, just for a moment, of a slower, more attentive world.

And yes, the candle can still be lit.

An exceptional picture frame by Josef Urban, created around 1904, with original prints by Koloman Moser from Ver Sacrum of 1898.

The frame combines refined materials such as mahogany, rosewood, ebony, maple, mother-of-pearl and brass. Its clear structure, subtle contrasts and restrained decorative details reflect the elegant formal language of Viennese Jugendstil.

You can see it instantly: Josef Hoffmann didn’t design in isolation—he observed nature with precision and translated it into form.

The delicate rhythm of the lily of the valley, its hanging blossoms and slender stems, reappears here as a refined geometric language. Soft curves become structured lines, organic movement turns into ornament. What seems playful at first glance reveals a strict, almost architectural clarity—the essence of Viennese Jugendstil.

This vase captures that moment where nature is not copied, but reimagined.

An iconic design — with a touch of extravagance.
This Fledermaus table features a glass top revealing the ‘Grünfink’ fabric beneath and a refined brass band encircling the base.

A rare and elegant variation on a modern classic.

The female figure held a central position in Jugendstil in general and particularly in the creations of Amphora’s artists. Their work was strongly influenced by the very floral and stylized French Art Nouveau.

Especially poster art by the likes of Alphonse Mucha and Paul Berthon in Paris were a significant source of inspiration for the Bohemian ceramic artists in Turn-Teplitz around 1900. Consequently, they produced a whole series of vases with female portraits as their main theme. From purely decorative to meaningfully allegorical, a great variety of portrait vases have emerged from the manufacture around that time.
