Sugar and cream service | MBRS 24 SI
Informazioni su questo prodotto
Architonic ID: 1546109
SKU: MBRS 24 SI
Anno di Lancio: 1924
The sugar-cream service that Marianne Brandt still produces today came into being in 1924, one year after Brandt's entry into the metal workshop of the Dessau Bauhaus. It is still made by a silversmith made of 925 sterling silver and ebony. Although the service is far from the average commodity in terms of price and material, it is an example of the struggle for an absolute practical value. As Brandt reported, experiments continued until the spout was drip-free. Today the service impresses with its sculptural expressiveness.

Marianne Brandt
Germany
Marianne Brandt (née Liebe) (1893–1983) was a pioneering German designer and one of the most influential figures of the Bauhaus movement. Trained initially as a painter, she joined the Bauhaus in Weimar in 1924 and soon became a leading student in the metal workshop, an area dominated by men at the time. Under the mentorship of László Moholy-Nagy, Brandt's innovative designs in metalwork — particularly her teapots, lamps, and ashtrays — came to embody the functional and minimalist aesthetics of the Bauhaus. Her iconic teapot design, created in 1924, is celebrated for its geometric purity and remains a landmark of 20th-century industrial design. Brandt later became the head of the Bauhaus metal workshop, making her one of the first women to lead a workshop at the school. Beyond her Bauhaus contributions, Brandt worked as a designer for the metalware company Ruppelwerk and later engaged in teaching and visual arts. Her legacy lies in her commitment to combining functionality with elegant simplicity, which helped shape modern industrial design and challenged gender norms within the field.
