''[Leopold] Bauer's designs for coloured vases are characterised by their compact conception of form, [...] thus the artistic power and imagination of the architect [...] becomes immediately apparent. Although his collection is determined by the spirit and principles of the Viennese geometric style, it also shows strong individual traits, especially in the new personal rethinking of the traditional function of the vase as well as in the treatment of the glass mass'' (Mergl/Ploil/Ricke, Loetz Boehmisches Glas 1880 to 1940, p. 19).
