A unique design adventure that began in 1839
The story of Kähler begins as early as 1839, when the Dutch potter Herman J. Kähler opens a small ceramics workshop in Næstved and turns the first Kähler vase. It marks the start of a unique design adventure that will one day resonate around the world. However, it is only when his son Herman A. Kähler takes over the famous workshop in 1875 that the ceramic adventure really begins.
URBANIA
URBANIA TEALIGHT HOUSES
The Urbania collection pays homage to light and is perfect for creating a cosy and poetic mood. The small faience houses, designed by the design duo Bache and Bendix Becker, are inspired by known buildings and cast a beautiful light through their windows and doors. Let your favourite tealight house light up on its own or place it together with other Urbania houses to create a unique look on the window sill, sideboard or table.
HAMMERSHØI’S DISTINCTIVE PROFILINGS
The vases were designed by Hans-Christian Bauer, who designed the entire Kähler Hammershøi series with great respect for Kähler’s artistic legacy, design history and handmade design traditions.
The glass vase also features Hammershøi’s distinctive profiling and clear grooves, known from the ceramic vases. The vase is mouth-blown and has its own unique and beautiful shape.
SERIES
Since its foundation in 1839, Kähler has been known for its classic handmade ceramics, a tradition that continues today when design history and contemporary design come together in Kähler’s many series. This is where you’ll find elegant vases, dinner services for spring and Christmas, tableware that you can use all year round, beautiful figures and cosy tealight houses.
