    Lead Crystal Champagne Glass from Adolf Hitler’s Personal Table Service at The Berghof

    Lead Crystal Champagne Glass from Adolf Hitler’s Personal Table Service at The Berghof

    Absolutley stunning Lead Crystal Champagne Glass used at important events held at Adolf Hitler’s mountain residence in the Bavarian alps, The Berghof, this incredible piece is from Hitler’s Personal Table Service which was used exclusively by him and his immediate entourage.

    The champagne glass bears an engraved left-facing (political) eagle and swastika which is flanked on either side by Hitler’s initials, ‘AH’. The top rim of the glass and its base are finished in gold trim. It has a beautiful long facetted stem. To the underside of the base can be found the makermark for Master Glassmaker firm of Josephinenhütte.
    Josephinenhütte, a Silesian glassworks in the Sudeten Mountains, founded in 1842 by Count Leopold von Schaffgotsch and named after his beloved wife Josephine. The glassmaker Franz Pohl, head of Josephinenhütte, was a gifted creator and artistic pioneer who went beyond the boundaries of what was thought possible in glassmaking at the time. Thus, were created glass objects of technical sophistication and absolute beauty, which made the historic Josephinenhütte one of the most significant glassworks in Europe and the New World. The glassworks is still in practice to this day.
    In 1936 – 1937, as per their catalouge, they produced two designs of crystal glassware, the first being “Frohlinde” and the second pattern in the same year called “Josephine”, this beautiful example is a “Josephine“.

    Much of the Adolf Hitler personal silverware survived but the glassware is extremely rare to find.

    As mentioned, Adolf Hitler Personal Glassware is incredibly rare to find, the “Joshepine” pattern has been seen, briefly, a set of four appeared at auction in 2011, also one or two have popped up on premium millitaria websites over the years, but have never lasted long.
    However, the “Frohlinde” pattern seems to be the more commonly found of these rare glasses, the most recent (that we have discovered) one showing up at a prestigious U.S. Auction House in February 2017, ‘Adolf Hitler Wine Glass captured by the 506th P.I.R.’, even though this beautiful glass had been broken off at it`s stem and repaired it still fetched $4,500. (£3,635.)

    A truly stunning Adolf Hitler personal use item, an absolute must have for the diserning collector.

    We have another rare piece, this time a white wine glass, from the same collection which you can see now on site, Product ID: 3430.

    Schnapps Glass from The Berchtesgadener Hof #3

    Schnapps Glass from The Berchtesgadener Hof Hotel Obersalzburg

    Beautiful little schnapps/cordial glass with frosted Eagle and swastika

    The Berchtesgadener Hof Hotel had previously been the Grand Hotel Auguste Victoria, popular with visiting royalty. The National Socialists bought it in 1936, remodeled it, and renamed it the Berchtesgadener Hof, and used it to house dignitaries visiting Adolf Hitler’s Berghof, such as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, and David Lloyd George. High-ranking Nazis such as Josef Goebbels, Heinrich Himmler, and Joachim von Ribbentrop also stayed there, as did visiting military officers such as Erwin Rommel. Eva Braun lived at the Berchtesgadener Hof when she first came to Berchtesgaden, before moving into the Berghof. Later, Obersalzberg functionaries such as Martin Bormann’s brother, Albert, lived here, as did Hitler’s sister Paula (incognito as Paula “Wolf”).
