Marianne Brandt, 1924
Marianne Brandt's tea extract jug from 1924 is one of the most important Bauhaus icons. Only a few original examples from the Bauhaus metal workshop are known today and all are in the possession of the museum. These specimens, designed by Marianne Brandt, all differ slightly in shape and have a value of over EUR 250,000. A special design feature is the typical, cross-shaped foot section. Today's licensed version of the tea extract jug is made by Tecnolumen as a collector's edition in silver-plated brass. The tea extract jug is also available in 925 sterling silver on request.

Marianne Brandt’s unique talent was soon picked up by László Moholy-Nagy. Inspired by him, Brandt undertook her studies in the male-dominated field of metalworking, where she was more successful than many of her classmates.
