Lidded bowl in Bauhaus style - Harald Buchrucker

A small hand-hammered lidded bowl in brass by Harald Buchrucker. A superb little piece of German metal art - the object reveals obvious Bauhaus-reminiscences (even though Buchrucker worked with brass mainly from 1949 onwards when pewter became 'old-fashioned'). Diameter 4.3', height incl. knob approx. 2.6'. Design presumably by Wilhelm Blutbacher (attr.). Underneath with engraved Buchrucker-sign. Excellent condition.
