About the Item

An elegant and authentic Mid-Century Modern brass dish or pocket tray (vide-poche), designed and manufactured by the renowned Austrian master craftsman Richard Rohac in Vienna, circa 1950. This exquisite piece perfectly encapsulates the organic, biomorphic design language of the post-war Austrian modernism era. Crafted from solid brass with a beautifully aged warm patina, the dish features a striking, fluidly curved triangular silhouette. Its clean lines and minimalist yet sculptural form make it a highly sophisticated decorative accent for any modernist or eclectic interior. Richard Rohac (1906–1956) was one of the most significant metalwork artists of the Wiener Moderne. After completing his training and working as a master craftsman at the legendary Werkstätte Hagenauer, he established his own independent workshop in 1932. His post-war designs are highly sought after by collectors worldwide for their exceptional quality and timeless mid-century aesthetic. Fully stamped on the reverse with the authentic mirrored "RR" monogram workshop mark and "Vienna / Made in Austria". Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The piece retains its original, unpolished surface with a gorgeous authentic patina, minor signs of age-appropriate wear, and light oxidation. No dents or structural damage. Dimensions: Height: 0.9 in / 2,5 cm Width: 9.8 in / 25 cm Depth: 5.9 in / 15 cm
