Brought together by ABASK, renowned photographer Douglas Friedman and 200-year-old glassmaker Lobmeyr have collaborated on a limited-edition collection. The series, which includes a pitcher and six tumblers, marries Lobmeyr’s esteemed Alpha service with cultural emblems from Douglas’ home in Marfa, Texas – these include a cowboy mid-Rodeo, a Stetson, cacti and cloud formations, all of which have been hand-painted onto ultra-thin crystal by Lobmeyr’s sixth-generation artist, Louise Rath.
