    Glastechnische Laboratorium Schott & Genossen was founded by 1884, Otto Schott, Ernst Abbe, Carl Zeiss and his son Roderich Zeiss. The Mainz facility was a consequence of the World War II, because the Jena factory was expropriated transformed into a state-owned entity in 1948 and was divided in half: VEB Jenaer Glaswerk in Jena in East Germany, and Jenaer Glaswerk Schott & Gen in Mainz in West Germany. These two pitcher were produced in the last plant.
    We bought it on Friday, two days ago in a shop that we regularly goes, Ayer y Hoy https://www.instagram.com/ayeryhoyantiguedades/?hl=es for about 10 U$. I had posted several things that were purchased there.
    I saw these pitchers, so modern and thought sure SEAN68 would had love them….
    It seems that the designer was Heinrich Löffelhardt, there are a few in milchglas online.
    From 1954 on Heinrich Löffelhardt was given the responsibility for the design of the “JENAer Glaswerke Schott & Gen. in Mainz” and its subsidiary the „Vereinigten Glaswerke in Zwiesel“.
    In the 1950th Löffelhardt was already successfully working for the porcelain manufacturer Arzberg and Schönwald. As an assistant of Wilhelm Wagenfeld in the workshop of the Vereinigten Lausitzer Glaswerke VLG (1937-41) and as a designer for Gral-Glas in Göppingen he could references on solid experiences in the glass industry. Because Wagenfelds design had hidden some time-limited problems for a long time, Erich Schott intrusted Heinrich Löffelhardt with the redesign of this set. In 1955, he found for the delicate cream- and sugar bowls a pure conical, stable and timeless form. In its strict elegance, they are unmistakably products of the post-war period, of the ideal of the “form without ornament”. They took Wilhelm Wagenfelds warning to the heart, that the “Dinge um uns” (1946, translated here: the things around us) should be the undemanding. This little set provides a significant example for the solidarity to the Bauhaus. It represents the concept of the “good form” of the “German Werkbund” and the “Rat für Formgebung” as an ambassador of a young democracy to the world. https://en.design20.eu/objects/set-for-milk-and-sugar-heinrich-loeffelhardt-jenaer-glas-schott/
