Unfortunately not on display at the moment
The aim of the Wiener Werkstätte was to permeate all areas of life with art. High-quality decorative objects and articles of daily use, produced serially or as unique items, were meant to adorn man’s entire surroundings. In 1906, the Wiener Werkstätte opened an exhibition hall on Neustiftgasse in Vienna with the exhibition Der gedeckte Tisch [The Laid Table] organized by Koloman Moser (1868–1918) and Josef Hoffmann (1870–1956). In the exhibition, visitors could see the Wiener Werkstätte’s products and achievements. On display were several tables laid and decorated in different ways. Along with various glasses and table services, the exhibition also featured jardinières and Moser’s 1903 flower vase with a cloverleaf pattern.
