Widmann Art Deco Coffee Tea Pot Pitcher Deskey Luc Lanel Jensen Ponti 1930 Style

  
This stunning QUINTESSENCE tea pot by Christoph Widmann is a must-have. Its Art Deco streamline moderne style took home the 1990 Design Award at the Frankfurt Art Fair.

The pot is made of EPNS, electroplated nickel silver, and has a sleek polished finish that complements the nautically influenced shape. Measuring 5.75 inches in depth, including the handle, and standing at 7 inches tall, this medium-sized pot is perfect for serving tea to your guests - or just displaying as an objet d'art. The pot features a beautiful silver color and is an original piece, manufactured in Pforzheim Germany in the 1990s.

This Christoph Widmann tea pot is sure to impress. Reminiscent of the Peter Muller-Munk SS NORMANDIE pitcher. Similar to pieces of the 20's and 30's by Georg Jensen, Luc Lanel for Christofle, and Jean Puiforcat. VERY influenced by the modernist 1920's - 1930s sleek style of the streamlined locomotives, automobiles and of course, the great ocean liners of that period. A similar homage can be seen in the Punto Bacola tea set we have currently listed.

CONDITION: Overall quite good - wear commensurate with age and use. The inside is as cleaner than any vintage teapot I've seen. That said, the outside could definitely use a fresh polish. Please also check our other listings! In the coming weeks, we will be offering several other prized 1920's - 1930's Art Deco pieces, including sculptures by ALEXANDRE OULINE, LUCIEN GIBERT, JEAN DE RONCOURT, MAX LE VERRIER, tea/coffee sets from CHRISTOFLE, PUIFORCAT flatware, goblets and cocktail set from Desny, Revere, Lurelle Guild for Kensington, and Chase, modernist paintings, a suite of cubist portraits / lithographs, African and tribal art, as well as a nice selection of furniture - a Machine Age Norman Bel Geddes for Simmons bedroom set, (dressers, bed, vanity / desk), tables and chairs by Wolfgang Hoffmann and Alfons Bach (Royalchrome, Lloyd). Also, a Paul Frankl inspired skyscraper coffee table, and small objects and figurines (Rosenthal, Hertwig Kathutte), as well as a pair of shagreen/ leather screens custom created for the Baccarat Hotel, NYC.
