Christa Ehrlich voor Zilverfabriek Voorschoten...

Description: A rare Rice serving spoon / pudding serving spoon designed by Christa Ehrlich for Zilverfabriek Voorschoten. Christa Ehrlich was an originally Austrian designer who from 1922 to 1925 studied at the Vienna Kunstgewerbeschule of Josef Hoffmann. For the important international exhibition Europäisches Kunstgewerbe in Leipzig (1927) she established the Austrian section. There she met Carel Begeer (1883–1956), director of the Koninklijke Nederlandse Edelmetaal Bedrijven (KNEB), who invited her to design modern silver domestic articles for the Voorschoten factory. Her designs proved to be highly successful and are still praised and regarded as exemplary for the so-called ‘constructive’ or ‘modernist’ style that was in vogue in the 1920s. She had a fondness for sparsely decorated products with clear, preferably geometric main shapes. Christa Ehrlich remained with the silver factory until her retirement.
