Artefacts by Werkstatte Hagenauer can be considered as a continuation of Austrian design foloowing the tradition of the Wiener Werkst\u00e4tte. As it is well known, those Viennese artists around Josef Hoffmann put arts and crafts to a new level at the beginning of the 20th century.
\nKarl Hagenauer designed this elegant centrepiece in the early 1930s, using similar motifs for the creation of candelabra or mirror frames. The stand features stylized animals performing different figures: a horse with its head turned backward, as well as two rearing horses and a frolicking dog. They seem to move in circles, like a merry-go-round. Or is it the dog playfully chasing around the horses?
\nThe centrepiece\u2019s delicate stand in openwork technique contrasts nicely with the compact bowl.
\nThis harmonious piece by Werkstatte Hagenauer is a fine example of artistically designed accessories for refined home decor and has presumeably been manufactured in the 1950s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
