Originally founded as Wolkenstein & Glückselig, the firm rebranded under Liebmann Lenk in the 1920s, marking a golden era of fine Viennese metalwork. Lenk specialized in glass and metal tableware, combining elegant minimalism with decorative etching. Their work is often associated with late Art Nouveau to early Art Deco style and was sold across central Europe.
 
This set likely dates from the late 1920s to late 1930s, reflecting the transitional design sensibilities of the period; delicate yet robust, ornamented yet practical.
