Carl Aubock II Nun Table Lamp Model No. 4263

Creator: Werkstätte Carl Auböck
Offered by: JF Chen

Description
The traditional Carl Auböck workshop is still placed in its original Viennese townhouse in the 7th district. In the years of its foundation the workshop mainly produced the so called, Wiener Bronzen.' In 1926, the workshop was passed on from father to son, Carl Auböck II, who gave it new ideas-the beginning of Auböck design. Together with his son Carl Auböck III, who cultivated friendships with influential designers like Walter Gropius, Herbert Bayer, Charles and Ray Eames, they worked for Hermes and Píerre Cardin amongst others. His design career reached the top at the Triennale di Milano 1954, where he received four gold medals for his work. The Aubock design is timeless, hence, its continuous manufacturing of lamps, sculptures, and other accessories.
