Werkstätte Hagenauer Wien, Julius Jirasek
Werkstätte Hagenauer Wien was a Viennese metal workshop founded by Carl Hagenauer in 1898. Under Karl and Franz Hagenauer it became internationally known for modernist sculptures and functional objects in brass, copper, wood and nickel-plated metal. Its designs range from stylized animals and African-inspired figures to bowls, bookends, mirrors and table accessories, typically marked with the workshop’s wHw monogram.
Julius Jirasek was an Austrian architect and for many years at the staff by (workshop) Werkstätten Hagenauer. Jirasek studied under Josef Frank and Oskar Strnad at the Kunstgewerbeschule. Jirasek-designed pieces, such as his furniture and utensils, are popular. Also, Jirasek designed two houses for the Wiener Werkbundsiedlung.
