Excellent Viennese craftsmanship.
When furnishing the apartment of Dr. Hans Eisler von Terramare's family, Koloman Moser designed and executed several such pieces of furniture. Especially the stained glass, the use of maple wood, the wardrobe's shape and the back board that goes down to the floor clearly prove that Moser was the designer.
