“Ferdinand” is the name of the enchanting crystal glass series that the Austrian designer Gottfried Palatin has created for the manufacturer Theresienthal. The eye-catcher of the delicately engraved tumblers and carafe is a small dachshund.
A key inspiration for Palatin’s design was functionality. The glass is intended to really serve the person using it. The shape ensures that it is comfortable to hold. The true value of the series can be seen in the delicate lightness and mysterious shine of the handpolished surface, so unique to Theresienthal glasses.

Please avoid heating your glasses above 50°C and exposing them to abrupt temperature changes, such as by adding ice cubes to sun-warmed glasses or pouring hot tea into cold glasses. High temperatures and rapid changes create stresses that can lead to breakage – sometimes only later.
Glasses with paintings, gilding, or platinum plating must never be placed in the dishwasher, as precious metals and enamel colors can be damaged or washed out.
Plain glasses as well as cut or engraved glasses may be cleaned in the
dishwasher, but only below 50°C and without harsh detergents. However, hand wash is recommended, as dishwashers can dissolve glass components and cause the surface to become cloudy over time.
It is best to use a pure linen cloth for drying and polishing.
For candle holders: to avoid thermal shock, change the candle before the flame is 3 cm away from the crystal.
