Design classics
Josef Hoffmann, founder of the legendary “Wiener Werkstätte“ designed this world renowned mocca set in 1929. The ribbed sides allow a variety of pattern possibilites and is available in ten shades. Due to the large number of rounded festures it continues to place very high demands on the porcelain painters of Augarten, when using the airbrush.
On September 15th, 1966, during a presentation ceremony at the new MET Opera House in New York, the Austrian Foreign Minister, Lujo Toncic-Soring, declared that the new Lobmeyr chandeliers “should remain forever a shining and glittering symbol of the friendship between Austria and the United States”.
AD 5 is the handmade reproduction of a lamp created by Desny in 1924.
Oswald Haerdtl, one of the most versatile architects during the first half of the 20th century, worked closely together with Lobmeyr. One of the highlights of the combined creativity is seen in this remarkable design from the year 1925.
The Bed is a unique and timeless masterpiece. Designed in an elegant-reduced form, extracted from very old, matured wood which was used in a building for at least 150 years and manufactured with the characteristical „dovetails” in ultimate perfection of tradtional craftmanship
AD 3 is the handmade reproduction of a lamp created by the french designer Charles Martin (1884 - 1934). It is movable in any direction.
The term Party Lounge, registered as a patent by designer Friedrich Kiesler in 1936, is something of a declaration of intent, as the sofa has room for up to six people — enough for a party.
Hans Harald Rath designed the "Alpha“ set in 1952. The even shape full of tension makes the glasses lie smoothly in the hands.
The prototype was designed for Lobmeyr by Josef Hoffmann for the "Werkbund" Exhibition in Cologne in 1914. This series, emanating from the time of the "Wiener Werkstätte", was created specially for the drawing-room and could either be mounted on a stand or affixed to the ceiling.

Sehr interessantes Produkt. Es kombiniert das Verspielte mit dem Eleganten und im Design stehen diese meist an anderen Enden des Spektrums. Bravo, sehr gelungen!
