Product description
Designer Gisbert Pöppler immerses the aviator cup by Marguerite Friedlaender-Wildenhain in the four vibrant shades of Jaune, Rouge, Bleu and Vert, which are contrasted with rims in bright orange. The master painters at KPM Berlin transfer the rich tones to the coffee cup by hand in an elaborate process.
Originally created in 1930 as a pure design study, the aviator cup embodied the spirit of New Objectivity - a reduced, functional design language that has lost none of its clarity and elegance to this day. The design is characterized by the interplay of form and function: the striking base ring of the cup and the precise recess in the saucer merge into a harmonious unit that combines stability with design elegance.
Gisbert Pöppler, known for his keen sense of space, proportion and color, transfers his signature style to the porcelain. The carefully composed tones lend lightness to the functional form and allow it to shine in a new light.
The mugs are limited to 100 pieces each.
Care instructions:
To ensure that the joy of the delicate, masterfully hand-applied painting
lasts a lifetime, careful handling is recommended. The painted
porcelain is generally dishwasher-safe, but regular
cleaning is best done by hand to avoid the colors fading due to
excessively frequent machine cleaning.
