This bottle stopper (called “Flaschenstoppel” in Josef Hoffmann’s draft) was part of a small series of bottle stoppers Hoffmann designed for the Wiener Werkst\u00e4tte.
\nFrustrated by the bankruptcy and dissolution of the Wiener Werkst\u00e4tte in 1932 as a result of the Great Depression, Josef Hoffmann looked for new silversmithies to realise his designs. He chose the silversmithy Alexander Sturm, which was to realise some of his designs from then on.
\nThe design originally created for the Wiener Werkst\u00e4tte before 1910 forms now part of the collection of the Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna under inventory no. KI 12094-29<\/a>.<\/p>\n
