Water Pitcher (Austro-Hungarian Empire (Klostermühle))
This is a Water pitcher. It was designed by Karl Massanetz and manufactured by J. & L. Lobmeyr.
This object is not part of the Cooper Hewitt's permanent collection. It was able to spend time at the museum on loan from J. & L. Lobmeyr GmbH as part of Making Design.
Massanetz’s water pitcher is of blown glass with applied handles. The surface is decorated with black-pen painting and gold decoration, a technique refined in Steinschönau, in northern Bohemia. The intricate, lace-inspired design radiates symmetrically from the middle of the body, creating a kaleidoscope of pattern and detail.
