Quote Christian Witt-Dörring: "In addition to the already established contacts, there are now also producers from the porcelain and furniture industry such as Josef Böck, the bentwood furniture manufacturer J. &. J. Kohn and the Prague-Rudnik wickerwork factory. Products made by the companies E. Bakalowits Söhne and Josef Böck are sold as Moser's designs, but also under the label ‘SCHULE Prof. KOLO MOSER’. The latter can be found either on independent designs by his students or on objects whose shapes come from Moser, whereas the decorations were designed by students”.
