    Description

    In the late 1920s, Werkstätte Hagenauer began creating table centerpieces and small vessels shaped like birds. While characterized by a minimalist design that prioritizes pure form and eliminates superfluous details, these objects still exude a playful lightness.
    This particular piece is expertly crafted from a single sheet of alpaca metal. The material stands out with ist cool, silvery tone and remarkable corrosion resistance, blending decorative beauty with practical functionality. The hammered texture enhances the surface, drawing attention to the piece’s meticulous craftsmanship.
