By etching the glaze, applying gold in varying thicknesses and firing it under a marbling lacquer, Drexler achieved a controlled play of lilac tones and dense gold veins that has never been convincingly imitated, cementing his reputation as a technical and artistic innovator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHans Wohlrab\u003c\/strong\u003e (1911–1970) was a German designer whose porcelain forms for Rosenthal are known for their calm proportions and disciplined modernist clarity. Helmut Drexler (1927–2016) was one of the key artistic figures behind Rosenthal Studio-Line’s most experimental surface décors, developing metallic finishes that pushed porcelain beyond traditional ornament. Rosenthal Studio-Line, launched in 1961, became the company’s design-led line, known for collaborations with important international designers and artists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosenthal\u003c\/strong\u003e, founded in 1879 in Selb, Bavaria, is one of Germany’s most important porcelain manufacturers, recognised for combining industrial production with high design standards. With its Studio-Linie programme from the 1960s onwards, Rosenthal invited international artists and designers to create avant-garde forms and décors, making pieces like this set both functional objects and design collectibles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rosenthal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56860763357559,"sku":"1786_1790","price":249.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/0434\/3415\/files\/1786_1790_DUO_Set_Rosenthal_HelmutDrexler_LaminaRot_Red_Gold_Porcelain_Satin-1.jpg?v=1773244021","url":"https:\/\/www.berlinretrofinds.com\/products\/lamina-rot-vase-lidded-box-hans-wohlrab-helmut-drexler-for-rosenthal-1971","provider":"Berlin Retro Finds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
