Lit: The Otto Wolter silversmithy in Schwäbisch Gmünd was founded in 1875 by the engraver and silversmith Otto Wolter and remained in the Wolter family until 1992. The company specialized in the production of silverware in various styles, as well as silver mountings for glassware and porcelain. Otto Wolter’s silverware often shows clear references to the ornamental designs of Dagobert Peche and the Wiener Werkstätte or the austere designs of Wolfgang Tümpel and the Bauhaus.
