Among other items, visitors to Fragility and Nobility: 19th Century Masterpieces of European Glass can encounter the Moser collection, beloved by royals; Bohemia-Indian glassware produced for the Indian market; French mosque lamps designed for both the Islamic market and a European market favoring Islamic patterns; and Hispano-Moresque Bohemian glassware combining elements of Spanish and North African culture.
