Quote Christian Witt Döring: "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 Prag-Rudnik wickerwork factory. Products made by the companies E. Bakalowits Söhne and  Josef Böck are sold as Moser's design but also under the label "SCHULE Prof. KOLO MOSER", which can be found either on independent designs by his students or on objects whose shapes were designed by Moser, but whose decorations were designed by students".
