Ask about this object

This ink set was designed in 1917 by Hoffmann's student and then co-worker at Wiener Werkstätte, Carl Witzmann, as an appreciation for his master/teacher.

After Witzmann had left Wiener Werkstätte, Hoffmann probably had his designer's monogram engraved on the second writing set.
