Frederic Buehner-Warner:
Buehner studied with Kem Weber and Walter von Nessen under Bruno Paul at The Deutscher Werkbund Germany. The Deutscher Werkbund (German Work Federation) was a German association of architects, designers and industrialists, an important precursor to the Bauhaus. It was founded in 1907 in Munich Frederic Buehner emigrated to the United States in 1929. In 1933 he registered "Buenilum" which is the mark on the base.
This is a covered butter dish with original glass insert. The great little dish has a beaded edge around the dish and two loop handle with the trademark Buenilum figurative finial ends on top of the cover. The twisted stem is typical of Frederick Buehner's Art Deco period work.
The glass insert measures 4 3/4 inches wide and stands 1 inch tall. The base measures 6 1/2 inches wide. The top by itself stands 3 inches tall. When assembled, it measures about 3 1/2 inches tall. It is in good vintage condition with no long scratches or dents. It could use a good cleaning but I will leave that up to the new owner.
Add it to your Art Deco or hammered aluminum collection today. Use it as a covered candy dish! |
