As spiritual father of the Bauhaus movement, Walter Gropius (founder of The Architects Collaborative Inc; also known as TAC) had a major influence on design in the mid-20th century. Working with Rosenthal, he constructed production facilities for the company in Selb, Germany and designed the timeless TAC 1 tea service. From this, many different lines - including TAC 02 - were born. Dishwasher safe at low heat. Please note that special orders cannot be cancelled or returned; allow 3-6 months for delivery. Founded over 130 years ago in Germany, Rosenthal has continued to produce dinnerware and stemware that is constantly at the forefront of design. Whether you choose the classic Rosenthal collection, the Versace by Rosenthal line, or the more casual Thomas range, each piece from Rosenthal will feel fresh and unique.
