Rudolf Rochelt, Werkstatt für Kunsthandwerk, Memmingen

The June 2023 issue of the collectors' magazine "Trödler" contains an 8-page article by me about the company Rudolf Rochelt.
The article contains the company history of the metalware and "arts and crafts"  manufacturer Rochelt in Memmingen
and details about the cooperation with the designer "Igl" (Ernest Hofmann) and with the company "Hessische Majolika Fritz Dienes".

This ashtray (including the metal parts) was made by Rudolf Rochelt.
Only the ceramic bowl was produced (and marked) by the "Hessische Majolika Fritz Dienes".
You can read about the connection between the two companies in my article about Rudolf Rochelt and the Hessische Majolika Fritz Dienes (in: Trödler, issue june 2023).
