Description: Vtg Danish Mid Century Modern MCM Hans Gustav Ehrenreich Teak Wood Plate 10.5". The plate is back stamped "Ehrenreich Danmark" a Danish company started by Hans Gustav Ehrenreich (1917-1984). Ehrenreich was a Danish cabinet maker, entrpreneur, and designer who is most known for the happy Hoptimist in the late 1960s. The Hoptimist is a small wood human figure on a spring; Hans Gustav Ehrenreich wished was for Hoptimists to spread joy and put a smile on everyone’s lips with their round shapes, enlivening colours and their charming bobbing. This plate is not a Hoptimist, obviously, but it does come from the famous Danish designer who has a solid place in Denmark's history of design. Adapted from online sources: before the Hoptimists saw the light of day, Danish cabinetmaker Hans Gustav Ehrenreich would tinker in his workshop in the house on Aarhusvej in Stilling, Denmark. It was the late 1950s, and in the small “Ehrenreichs Trækunst” workshop, imagination ran high. No two things were ever the same. Small silverfish were transformed into inlays in hand-turned bowls and plates, and unique wooden art items from all over the world were sold from the workshop. Measures 10 1/2" in diameter.
