Like Josef Hoffmann (1870–1956), Koloman Moser (1868–1918), too, developed lattice objects which are hardly distinguishable from the ones created by Hoffmann (/en/object/4628) on account of their similarities. As the Wiener Werkstätte’s model books illustrate, Moser was the first to design an object with the typical square pattern in 1904 in the shape of his Flower Stand. He subsequently created a series of perforated vessels, such as tabletops, vases and baskets. The items were produced in an upmarket and a cheaper version, depending on the materials used. They were either fashioned from white-varnished sheet iron or from high-quality silver.
