Marianne Tazlari, Glass MuseumMarianne Tazlari finds it difficult to decide on a favourite piece: the Guttrolf jug from the 3rd century AD or the large Guttrolf drinking bottle from the 15th century? The ancient multi-tubular joke articles, also called "Angster" or "Guttrolfe", made drinking and serving difficult due to their unusual shape. Often something went wrong - to the amusement of the guests present. The approximately 20 Guttrolfe form the beginning, the "heart" of Löber's passion for collecting, which is primarily concerned with the lost technology of the Guttrolf goblets (How did the 3-5 tubes come about?) and glass technologies in general.

Marianne Tazlari, Glass MuseumThe latest exhibit from 2019 is also one of the museum director's favorites: the Sky-Graal/Himmels vase by Heide Breit (Zwiesel/Bayer.Wald) is made using the so-called Graal technique. The complex multi-layered process creates glass objects such as the "blue" planet here - enveloped in white clouds. Marianne Tazlari: "For me, this is not a decorative, masterfully crafted utilitarian object, but an artistic expression of our time and its fragility. What other material than glass could have done this better?"
