The original designs of all five decorations by Josef Hoffmann still exist (illustrations 
pp. 18, 22, 71, 83, 95, 125-127, 145, 177, 185). 
Thus Hoffmann provided the main motif for each of the variants A, B, C, D, E and F. In 
implementing these designs, the Lobmeyr Company often included shapes which Hoff 
mann had probably not originally conceived for this purpose. 
BRONZITE DECORATION VARIANT A (pp. 70-81) 
This decoration consists of horizontal lines of black bronzite (or gold) and “transparent 
ground" balls. The use of the same type of shapes for the drinking Service with variant 
A, B and F bronzite decoration has already been referred to above. We also have the 
painters' order numbers for variant A bronzite decoration (from 1911 for the beaker, 
from 1912 for the other shapes). These are given below with the shape numbers (the lat- 
ter in brackets): 
Decanter with Stopper (A 9376-11) 
Fiedler 231-12, Lenhardt 2012-14, Eiselt 36-18 
Stemmed glass (A 9377-11) 
Fiedler 232-12, Lenhardt 2013-14, Eiselt 8-17 
Champagne glass, shallow (A 9378-11) 
Fiedler 233-12, Lenhardt 2014-14, Eiselt 10-17 
Liqueur glass (A 9379-11) 
Fiedler 234-12, Lenhardt 2019-15, Eiselt 9-17, Pietsch 219-19 
Water beaker (T. S. 226) 
Fiedler 206-11 (various decorations, including variant A) 
Lenhardt 2089-15, Nowak 3106-11 (Var. A, with gold lines!) 
BRONZITE DECORATION VARIANT B (pp. 82-93) 
Like the variant A decoration, the variant B decoration consists only of lines, but with 
horizontal and vertical lines intersecting at right angles, and without engraved “balls”. 
Once again, the beaker was the prototype (produced from 1911), and was followed by 
the other shapes with variant B decoration (from 1912). 
Decanter with Stopper (A 9376-11) 
Fiedler 235-12, Lenhardt 2082-15, Eiselt 37-18, Rath 917 
Stemmed glass (A 9377-11) 
Fiedler 236-12, Eiselt 11-17 
Champagne glass, shallow (A 9378-11) 
Fiedler 237-12, Eiselt 13-17 
Liqueur glass (A 9379-11) 
Fiedler 238-12, Lenhardt 2092-15, D 12-17 
Water beaker (T, S. 226) 
Fiedler 206-11 (various decorations, including variant B), 
Nowak 3106-11 (Var. B, with gold lines!) 
Beer glass (no form number given) 
Bergmann 106-14 
BRONZITE DECORATION VARIANT F (pp. 124-143) 
Once again, the beaker (1911) was the prototype for the variant F drinking Service, 
which consisted of the same shapes as variants A and B. This was followed by the other 
pieces of the Service.
