Cylindrical Vase, 1950'sThe companion piece to the bulgy vase originates from the same shop in Italy. This fact, and some stylistic similarities (like the narrow neck and the wide flat spout) leads us to the conclusion, that both vases were probably designed by the same person.

Bulgy Vase, 1950'sWe found and bought the model of this vase in a furniture shop in northern Italy, where it had been since the 1950s, without being sold. Neither any stamps on the vase, nor any information from the owner of the shop, give any indication as to the designer or former producer of the vase. As it is a beautiful, distinct form from the early 1950s, we find it worth while to produce the vase, probably for the first time in a series.

Cigarette BoxDesny
More is known about Desny’s work than his personal life. What is known is that during the 1920’s and 1930’s he had a shop in Paris where he sold lamps and tableware of a very special stylistic character. The question of the copyright or of who the designer was is not always clear, as the label from Desny’s shop did not necessarily mean that he designed the article he sold. The rectangular tobacco box and the lid are made of sterling silver, the cylindrical shaped handle on the lid is gold plated.

Cocktail ShakerMarianne Brandt, circa 1925
The attribution, made in “Bruckmanns Silverlexikon” is fairly questionable. The stamps on the bottom and on the socket 0835 PV and 3* only state the silver content. They give no evidence of Bauhaus, nor of the supposed designer Marianne Brandt. Some of the stylistic characteristics are also atypical for Brandt, such as the straight metal handle of or the oblique socket. One more point, which speaks against the attribution is the fact, that cocktail shakers, produced in the workshop of Bauhaus are unknown. The workshop produced tea sets, bowls, lamps etc., not pretentious luxury objects like cocktail shakers of silver. The basic form of the shaker corresponds to the idea of Bauhaus and also strictly with the function. Is there a more ideal form that the globe in which to mix or toss a drink with circular movements? The formal conception of this object is very convincing, even without any attributions to a designer. The shaker was designed around 1925.

Tea and Coffee Set"The Cube", circa early 1930's
This set was designed for the Cunard Steamship Co. Ltd. in the beginning of the 1930s. The company later amalgamated with the White Star Line, forming together the Cunard White Star Line, which had the most renowned English passenger ships under its flag. The set was made in silver plate for the 1st class and in china for the 2nd and 3rd classes. Although the idea of cube shaped tableware was not quite new (compared with the famous refrigerator set from Wilhelm Wagenfeld, for example) the use of it on ships is ideal, saving storage space and room on the tables and trays. Today we see this idea in use for example on airplanes, but unfortunately, the quality of the design is poor, compared with the “Cunard” models.

With the help of some photos and additional information from the widow of Hans Przyrembel, we have reconstructed this simple and practical tea glass holder. The glass inset (a commercial tea glass, still produced by the Jenaer Glas) is held by silver wires and an ebony holder – the ebony holder to prevent the heat of the liquid to spread.

Tea Globe Holder
Wilhelm Wagenfeld, 1924
One of the main tasks of the Bauhaus work shop was to design and produce utensils for the preparation of tea. During the years 1923-25 each member of the metal work shop contributed at least one object to this product range. We have chosen to reproduce the tea globe holder from Wilhelm Wagenfeld. Produced in series for the first time.

They were very obliging in giving us a technical drawing, from which our reproduction was manufactured. The teapot is the part of the set, which most strictly follows the formal principles of the Bauhaus school. Circle, globe and square are the basic forms of the construction.

The distinct form and the consideration for the function (e.g. the handles, which are very comfortable to grip) show the master class of this piece of work.

Matching the vase, we also produce a set of candle sticks. The original form has not been altered, the proportions simply diminished in relation. For this reason, the candle holder and the base are to be loosely fitted to the main part. On the other hand, the two additional loose parts are essential for the stability and the function. The body and the base of the candle stick are made of silver, the feet of rose quartz balls and the candle holder of brass, silver plated.

Fat-Meagre Gravy Pot
Wilhelm Wagenfeld, circa 1925
Wilhelm Wagenfeld designed several versions of this very practical table utensil. The first type, from 1923, was Wagenfeld’s project to qualify as a journeyman. It had a rounded form and a glass lid. The third version from 1927/29 had an elegant saucer and ebony handles.
The second version, which we have chosen for our remake, is from the early Bauhaus period. It has clear lines and simple forms, which serve and accentuate the function. The gravy pot is constructed so, that you can pour the fat gravy through the short, upper spout and the meagre gravy, which is heavier, through the longer spout opening at the very bottom of the pot. The inside of the gravy pot is gold plated, to prevent the silver affecting the taste of the gravy.
