{"title":"Richard Rohac","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRichard Rohac (1906-1956) was an Austrian designer and metal craftsman. He was virtually unknown outside of Austria in his lifetime. His work was sold internationally with only his logo (and \"Made in Austria\") to identify its source, a common enough practice at the time. Rohac apprenticed with the Werkstätte Hagenauer Wien in Vienna as a teenager, and stayed with the workshop another nine years before opening his own metalwork business in 1932. Rohac’s career was interrupted by military service and a period of internment in Greece. On his return to Vienna, he reopened his workshop and began producing the types of household items that had been lost or destroyed during wartime bombings. When a market emerged again for decorative objects, Rohac turned his talents to the design and production of busts and sculptures, as well as everything from desk and smoking accessories to corkscrews to bookends to pretzel holders to candlesticks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHe specialized in exotic – for the 1950s – African and Asian figures, and jungle animals. Rohac’s work was featured in an American newsreel on Austrian arts and crafts; one of his African busts was a state gift from Austria to the president of Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"african-warrior-sculpture-by-franz-hagenauer","title":"African Warrior Sculpture by Richard Rohac","description":"\u003cp\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/werkstatte-hagenauer\"\u003eWerkstätte Hagenauer\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1945-1955\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAustria\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfrican warrior with spear and shield in patinated bronze designed by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Rohac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.  Marked on bottom: Hagenauer Wien WHW.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4.72\" w x 1.5\" d x 5.31\" h\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage: eBay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12682076160094,"sku":"EB-ACSC9000","price":875.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1538\/5773\/products\/African_Warrior_1_22355bc7-a3ff-4571-b3e4-2a263d72fcba.JPG?v=1571610648"},{"product_id":"mid-century-brass-ashtray-by-richard-rohac-1","title":"Mid-Century Brass Ashtray by Richard Rohac","description":"\u003cp\u003eby \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\"\u003eRichard Rohac\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1930s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAustria\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePatinated brass ashtray in the shape of a rounded triangle designed by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Rohac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e. Signed on bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4.9\" w x 4.75\" d x 0.75\" h\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vintage: eBay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29377541439582,"sku":"AV-ACAS8004A","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1538\/5773\/products\/Richard_Rohac_Brass_Ashtray_1.JPG?v=1571610696"},{"product_id":"profile-of-an-african-lady-attributed-to-richard-rohac","title":"Profile of an African Lady Attributed to Richard Rohac","description":"\u003cp\u003eby \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Rohac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1950s\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAustria\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMid-Century profile plaque of an African lady in patinated bronze attributed to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adeenidesigngroup.com\/collections\/richard-rohac\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Rohac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.
