Hi,
It is oldest electoral hat (Kurhut) or ducal hat.
Can you show us marks on Austrian footed beaker ?
That is important, because Diana`s head or 19th century makes difference; there were no electors at the time any more, pure unsupported vanity.

I don't think it's an electoral hat/coronet because all versions of it have ermine rims. The coronet in question appears to have strawberry leaves and pearls like in British coronets but it's a bit different than tose of a marquess or an earl. And coronet above a monogram (OMS?) is a bit strange because you would expect to see a coat of arms of a crest instead.

Thank you, we knew the brand, but we are interested in whether it is possible to establish who this glass belonged to according to the monogram? Or to determine the approximate title of the owner by the crown?
