Czech glassmaking is synonymous with innovation, elegance and master craftsmanship.
One of the most prominent names in this tradition is Friedrich Egermann – a visionary who transformed the world of glass in the 19th century with his revolutionary techniques. His red glaze, lithyaline resembling agate and milk glass decorations have become icons of European design. Today, the Egermann brand is entering a new era under the leadership of Crystalex, which acquired the rights to its name in 2023. The goal is not to copy the past, but to create glass that combines historical elements with modern design and cutting-edge technologies, with a respect for its legacy.
Collections such as Signature, Art, Gentleman and Lady present a fresh look at contemporary aesthetics – from designer works to charismatic items for men and women of refined taste. Each piece is wrapped in luxurious packaging with a certificate of authenticity and a soft glass-cleaning cloth – proof that elegance is concealed in the details.
Today, Egermann represents luxury accessible to everyone. Each item carries the spirit of the past, but also the desire for progress. Visit the Crystalex Flagship Store Prague on Masarykovo nábřeží to discover glass that has inspired generations.
Lake Neusiedl, nicknamed the “Sea of the Viennese”, lies on the border between Austria and Hungary. Its shallow waters, salt pools and reed beds form the heart of the Seewinkel nature reserve – a landscape that has rightly been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is here that the Vila Vita Pannonia resort was built. A place for perfect relaxation.
In the heart of the Austrian Alps, where mountain elegance blends with top-class hospitality, another gastronomic triumph was achieved this year. The gourmet restaurant, La Fenice in the Hotel Arlberg Lech, has been awarded a prestigious star in the 2026 Michelin Guide. This recognition places La Fenice among the culinary giants of the region.
