Following his success at the World Exhibition in Vienna, Ludwig Moser participated in international and world exhibitions with even more intensity and purpose. He considered such exhibitions to be an effective means of promoting his glass and an opportunity to compare it with the work of his competitors. He did not miss a single important exhibition in Europe and overseas, and received a number of awards, including ones in Philadelphia (1876), Paris (1878 - Bronze Medal), New Orleans (1884-85 - Bronze Medal), Antwerp (1885), Pennsylvania (1885 - Silver Medal), Melbourne (1885), Paris (1889- Bronze Medal), Jamaica and Tasmania (1892 - Gold Medal).
The world of international glass recognised Moser as a top producer, appointing him a member of the jury at the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 1889.
