Title: Jewel Case, 1903 [Go to resource]
Description: This tin was remade the following year as 'Buhl', with boulle-work decoration. Turn-of-the-century Vienna saw the foundation by Joseph Hoffman of the Wiener Werkstaette (Vienna Workshop) in an attempt to revive the crafts of furniture, ceramics, glass, metalwork, leatherwork, and textiles. Much of the work produced by this group resembles that designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. This jewel case, on the other hand, looks backwards to to the opulent style of the high-bourgeoisie of Vienna in the 1880s.
