Detailed description: We present a stunning, 3-piece brass set by the renowned Swiss copper master, Auguste Dannhauer. Working in Geneva, Dannhauer was a master of organic forms and hand metalworking, known for teaching masters such as Jean Dunand.
The set is characterized by his distinctive wave pattern and exquisite, hand-cast texture. The handles are traditionally wrapped in wicker to provide insulation — a feature typical of high-quality European brass wares from this period. The set is in very good vintage condition with a beautiful natural patina. The wicker-wrapped handles remain intact (see photos). The interior shows signs of use appropriate to age.
