ABOUT PRODUCTID 36698
This set of six egg holders, designed by Wilhelm Wagenfeld for the German manufacturer WMF in the 1960s, is a compelling example of mid-century modern tableware. Each piece is crafted from high-quality Cromargan 18/10 stainless steel, notable for its cool, silvery tone and highly polished, mirror-like finish. The forms are organic, defined by softly flowing lines, asymmetrical contours, and seamless transitions between elements. The central cup for the egg is cylindrical with an internally fluted surface, harmoniously integrated into the undulating base. The construction is monolithic, with no visible joints or fasteners, and the softly rounded edges and flat base ensure stability and ease of use. All pieces are preserved in very good vintage condition, showing only minimal signs of use such as fine surface scratches typical for polished steel of this era—without dents, rust, or repairs. The listed price refers to the complete set of six holders.These egg holders evoke the spirit of 1960s German modernism: functionalism fused with the understated elegance of Bauhaus, where pure form needs no embellishment. The silvery steel reflects morning light, casting delicate highlights across the table—almost as if Wagenfeld himself whispered that daily rituals could become small ceremonies. The minimalist approach is an expression of respect for both material and user, while remaining open to contemporary interpretation.This set can be used in a classic mid-century modern dining room or within contemporary, minimalist interiors. It would pair well with simple porcelain, geometric placemats, or glass table accessories. Combining it with polished cutlery or glassware will accentuate the play of reflections and the clarity of the material. The holders are also suited to eclectic collector spaces, where design history meets everyday use.
