CASA DE FAMILIA Bottle

£79.00 – £89.00

The Casa de Familia water decanter, designed in 1912 for the orphanage of the same name, is a simple and humble piece that magnificently demonstrates all the artistic ability of Josep Maria Jujol.

Josep Maria Jujol (1879/1949) is one of the greatest, yet least known, geniuses of Catalan architecture whose imagination and creativity are astonishing in each and every artistic discipline he embraced. He was an architect, a painter, a sculptor and a graphic artist to name only some of his talents, and he was Gaudí’s closest and keenest collaborator.

After the time he spent with his maestro he experimented with all styles until he had established his own creative universe that was far removed from the conventionalism of his day.
