At the end of the 1890s, Behrens decided to abandon painting in favour of the applied arts. His first graphic works and designs for glass, porcelain, jewellery and furniture appeared in 1898 and 1899.

The picture shows goblets from a set, designed by Peter Behrens, made by Rheinische Glashutten AB.
