Corner Umbrella Stand Art Nouveau in Brass and Oak Attributable Josef Hoffmann

About the Item

Early 20th century corner umbrella stand Art Nouveau in brass and oak attributable to Josef Hoffmann- Wiener Werkstätte - An artistic and unique piece recovered in the Zacherlhaus- Wien Measure cm: H 143, W 45x45, D 40. Notes on the architect designer Josef Offmann. Josef Hoffmann (1870-1956) was Austrian architect, interior designer and applied artist and designer of consumer goods. He studied architecture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, Austria, under Art Nouveau architect Otto Wagner under Baron C. Hasenauer, whose theories of functional, modern architecture profoundly influenced his works, and in 1896 he joined Wagner’s office. In 1898, he established his own practice in Vienna. In 1897, inspired by Mackintosh and the Glasgow School, he was one of the founding members with Gustav Klimt, of an association of revolutionary artists and architects, the Vienna Secession. In 1903, he founded with architects Koloman Moser and Joseph Maria Olbrich, the Wiener Werkstätte for decorative arts. They aspired to the Renaissance of the arts and crafts and to bring more abstract and purer forms to the designs of buildings and furniture, glass and metalwork, following the concept of total work of art. Hoffman's works combined functionality and simplicity of craft production with refined and innovative ornamental details and geometric elements. He is an important precursor of the Modern Movement and Art Deco.

  • Josef Hoffmann Bieffeplast Umbrella Stand Art Deco Art Nouveau Wiener Werkstätt
    By Josef Hoffmann
    Located in London, GB
    This modernist square umbrella stand of white powder-coated metal is a rare design Classic, from the renowned Josef Hoffmann for Bieffeplast. A square basket, with hundred of tiny square holes, is suspended from a white frame. At the base is a rich purple metal holder. This piece provides an crisp solution to umbrella storage, and is a must have for any design-conscious home. Josef Hoffmann was born in the Czech Republic in 1870, and would go on to be influential in the field of design, despite training as an architect. He and his Wiener Werkstätte were at the forefront of a new way of design: one of simple and sleek geometric lines. His love of small squares even earned Hoffmann the nickname Quadratl Hoffmann, or “Square Hoffmann”. He would go on to influence design powerhouses such as Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, and Gio Ponti. The Italian design company Bieffeplast won the rights to reproduce his work in the 1970s, and this particular piece was one of them.
