206 138003/1 Fine and rare Austrian hammered silver and ivory five-piece tea service josef hoffmann for the wiener werkstätte, 1923 Comprsing a teapot, cream jug, covered sugar bowl, sugar tongs, and tray, of lobed hammered design, the teapot and cream jug raised on circular foot with ivory spacer, the ivory handles finely carved in a double scroll, and the covers with stylized pine cone finials, with interlaced WW mark, JH monogram, Austrian duty mark, and rose trademark, 900 standard.

H: 9 1/2 in. (teapot). Total weight: 105 oz. note: The Wiener Werkstätte exhibited this design at the 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (see illustration).

The design of this tea service, with its hammered finish, bulbous lobes and boldly carved scroll handle, marks a stylistic change from the geometric designs in perforated sheet metal (“Gitterwerk”) that Josef Hoffman produced in collaboration with Koloman Moser around 1905. The distinctive double scroll ivory handle on the teapot is seen on Hoffman’s brass centerpiece designed circa 1922. These designs, produced around 1915-25 have been known to be part of a ‘Baroque’ phase of Viennese modern design.

For an identical example of the service see the Museum für Angewandte Kunst (MAK) Photo Archives, WWF 96-236-1.
