1922rif. 15058AB1922. Vienna Wiener Werkstätte ca. 1922. 9 : 175 cm. Black goadskin with gold embossment three-line gold stamp Wiener Werkstätte. This wallet was produced by the Wiener Werkstätte after a design by architect and designer Josef Hoffmann 18701956 between 1910 and 1928. It was the express wish of the founders of this institution that its range of products should encompass as many areas of life as possible. This is the idea of the Gesamtkunstwerk. Consequently the Wiener Werkstätte premises in Neustiftgasse 3234 also accommodated a leather workshop. This rectangular object is made of black leather and features a geometric decorative pattern in precious gold embossing. Together with the fine leather these gold ornaments provide the object with its thoroughly elegant and exquisite character as the Wiener Werkstätte designers devoted to even the smallest object the same attention as to larger ones. - One of the famous wallets designed by Josef Hoffmann made for the Wiener Werkstätte. hardcover
