Designed by Josef Maria Hoffman, renowed Austrian architect and industrial engineer

Made by Wiener Werkstätte Arts and crafts workshops, founded by Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser and Fritz Waerndorfer. They operated between 1903 and 1932. They sought primarily to restore the artistic and technical qualities of arts and crafts. Wiener Werkstätte were divided into the following departments: metalworking, furniture, bookbinding, fashion, ceramic, and initially included an architectural studio. The assortment, which the workshops could not produce themselves due to the technical background (home textiles, glass), was realized by external companies. The Wiener Werkstätte disappeared as a result of the economic crisis in 1932.

It has been re-polished with polyutherane piano lacquer by our professional refurbishing team in Czechia according to the original process.
