WAGENFELD
Consistently functional
Wilhelm Wagenfeld created the “Service 639” in 1934 in the spirit of Bauhaus. In 1937, the form WAGENFELD was awarded the Gold Medal for design at the World Exhibition in Paris. Today, the timeless modern form captivates by continuing to be up-to-date. Material, functionality and design together form a single entity with every object.
The designer of the form:Wilhelm Wagenfeld
"Useful things must be attractive, otherwise they don't fulfil their purpose." This was the maxim of Wilhelm Wagenfeld, born in 1900 in Bremen, who created porcelain items and a service with and for FÜRSTENBERG in 1934. Wagenfeld always followed the central idea of the Bauhaus movement: “Form follows function” – his works have a classic beauty.
