Oxblood Red Fan by Siemens-Schuckert Model W 250 T, Germany, 1950s
About the Item
Based on the design of their 1920s "MET2" and a post-war re-make from their 1930's "C210t", Siemens-Schuckert produced this model "W250T" in Germany between 1949 and 1955.
Showcasing their aviation heritage - Siemens-Schuckert also produced aircraft during World War 1, such as the "Riesenflugzeug" (giant plane or R-plane) - this desk fan became THE GERMAN FAN of the 1950s.
The base as well as the motor casing are made from oxblood-red lacquered metal and the welded "safety-cage" is attached to the motor casing with a ring. Health and Safety standards in the 1950's were obviously not in line with what we would expect today - best to keep kids and pets away.
Notably, by design, the blades on the "W250T" are not bolted to the hub.
While branded as Siemens only, the Siemens-Schuckert icon is featured above the Siemens branding consisting of a capital S with a smaller S superimposed on the middle and with the smaller S rotated left by 45 degrees.
The fan comes with two speed settings and is designed for 220V alternating current.
The fan is in good condition but shows signs of age (69+ years) and use. Please refer to photos.

Art Deco Table Lamp "Ikora" by Paul Haustein for WMF, Model 110 / 216, Germany c
By WMF Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik, Paul Haustein
Located in Cork, IE
A silver-plated brass body, which was "fire-patinated" in a newly developed chemical process, makes this "Ikora" table lamp a true example of how technological innovation drove exceptional design in 1920s Germany!
During the late 1920s WMF developed new techniques involving chemical reactions on precious metals and glass to produce its celebrated "Ikora" collection. By using a stopping-out method to create the pattern and adding Ammonia to blacken the brass during a high temperature firing process, a playful, yet geometric pattern was achieved, which gives this lamp a timeless Art Deco aesthetic.
Originally designed in 1928 by Prof Paul Haustein as a decorative metal container with lid, WMF decided to also use this design for this table lamp with model number 110 / 216
The lamp is wired for two E27 light bulbs and the central column can be easily extended by up to 8 cm (3.1 in) by loosening and tightening a small handle next to the two light sockets. This allows for different light effects as well as mounting larger lamp shades...
