A rare and striking decanter set attributed to Bimini Glass, Austria, complete with stopper and six glasses. The decanter features a sculptural nude figure enclosed within the vessel, arms outstretched in a fluid, expressive pose. Each glass is designed with a nude figure forming the stem, captured mid-dance with the head tilted back, one leg extended, and the other bent as if suspended in motion.
Rendered in a luminous divine green, the set carries an almost mythic presence—bold, sculptural, and undeniably captivating. Both functional and highly collectible, this is a standout Bimini-style suite that commands attention whether displayed or in use.
Attributed to the celebrated Bimini workshop, founded in Austria in 1923 by Fritz Lampl and his brother-in-law, Joseph Berger, this set reflects the refined artistry and technical mastery for which Bimini is known. The studio gained recognition for its intricate lampwork creations, including figural sculptures, animals, vases, and distinctive drinkware. Production came to an abrupt end in the late 1930s when Lampl was forced to flee Austria amid the rise of Nazism.
Given the feather-light fragility of the glass and its age (circa 1923–1936), this set is especially remarkable - a true testament to exceptional craftsmanship. Both functional and sculptural, it is a piece to be cherished, whether displayed as an heirloom or carefully enjoyed.
