Werkstätte Hagenauer Wien, Oswald Haerdtl
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.
Oswald Haerdtl (1899–1959) was an Austrian architect, designer and professor who played an important role in Viennese modernism. He studied at the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts and worked closely with Josef Hoffmann before establishing his own practice. Haerdtl designed architecture, interiors, furniture, glass and everyday objects, combining clear modern lines with refined craftsmanship and careful detailing.
