From 1901 the son of Herman August - Herman Hans Christian Kähler (1876-1940) takes over the leadership. A new era begins. Herman Hans Christian was tired of the "Kähler Red" and thought that it was time for a change. He was, like his contemporary Bertel Ipsen, fromP. Ipsens Enke, fascinated by Bindesboell and his slipped ceramics. So it was a stroke of luck when Svend Hammershoei arrived to the pottery and started his production of slipped ceramics. From 1908 Herman Hans Christian takes up the horn painting again. This technique suits the pots good and ceramics decorated with slipped horn painting is typical for what we today associate with the "Kähler Style". The Horn Painting was a difficult technique. The tool was a hollowed cow horn with a goose quill. The horn was filled up with the slip, which afterwards was dosed through the goose quill, used as a pen. Herman Hans Christian and his journeymen mastered the craft and often up to 10 horns were used at the same time decorating a vase. The first items were decorated in dark brown, blue and green with patterns in the Jugendstyle (Skoenvirke). Later on both colors and patterns became lighter. Excellent used vintage condition. No chips, cracks or repairs. Normal wear for age. *** HANDLING COSTS INCLUDE PACKAGING, ADDITIONAL INSURANCE AND REQUIRED SIGNATURE UPON DELIVERY ***
