WMF
Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik in Geislingen. Made silver-plated Art Nouveau objects in large series around 1900 and later stainless kitchenware.
Daniel Straub founded a workshop in Geislingen, and after the merger with Straub & Schweizer it became the Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik. The company made silver-plated objects in large series.
Around 1900 WMF became known for Art Nouveau objects in silver-plated pewter, and in 1927 came Cromargan, stainless steel for the kitchen. WMF is now part of Groupe SEB.
