DESIGN Kähler
Storia
In the 1930s, the classic Kähler teapot was produced with the distinctive spiral handle. Today, we are challenging the original method and giving the traditional Kähler ceramics a deserved renaissance. The result is authentic, informal art, enjoyment of which is only strengthened by the air of nostalgia.
For generations, Kähler has created vases, dishes, pots and kitchenware, many of which have become collectors’ items and design icons. Now you can own a small piece of nostalgic art history.
The story about Kähler begins in 1839, when the Holstein potter Herman J. Kähler opened a small ceramics workshop in the city of Næstved. But it was not until his son, Herman A. Kähler, took over the workshop in 1875 that the ceramics adventure gathered speed. With production of international art ceramics, the groundwork was laid for one of the greatest successes in Danish ceramics history.
In the 1930s, the classic Kähler teapot was created with original spiral handles. Today, we challenge the original techniques and interpret them in a contemporary light. The result is authentic and informal art, the enjoyment of which is simply intensified by the nostalgic quality.
