About the Item

10 Bauhaus Tea Cups and Teapot in green-toned glass from the "Teho" series by William Wagenfeld for Jenaer ca 1931. The Jenaer German glass was produced by Schott & Genossen, a company founded in 1884 in Jena, Germany, by chemist Otto Schott. Manufactured with silica and boron oxide, Schott's glass was ideal for beakers and test tubes since it was resistant to chemicals, high heat, and sudden fluctuations in temperature. Schott recognized in the 1910s that those same attributes also made it perfect for cooking, baking, and brewing tea. Schott's son, Erich, enlisted the help of Bauhaus designer William Wagenfeld, 1931 to create housewares with the glass. This partnership offered the perfect opportunity to test the Bauhaus philosophy of harmony between function and design in industrial production. Jenaer's various wares share a stunning simplicity and, just as important, are all still functional. As much as I love looking at my collection lined up on my kitchen shelves, I relish using it even more.
