Adelbert Niemeyer was a man of many talents. As a painter, architect and designer he was a co-founder of the German workshops and of the German Werkbund. Albert Bäuml, then the director of Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg, was so fascinated by the charisma of his designs that he even allowed Niemeyer to set up his own studio. The studio created models such as this handled vase, first exhibited in 1907, entwined with a fine garland mesh of violet and gold foliage.
