Everyday life, reimagined
A familiar shape reinterpreted - and given an entirely new function: Konstantin Grcic takes the archetypal silhouette of an everyday object, the funnel. Turned upside down, it becomes an oil dispenser. A shift in perspective that is as simple as it is ingenious, a subtle interplay between memory and function that brings understated elegance to the table. The composition of clear geometric shapes transforms stainless steel into everyday beauty.
The angled spout ensures precise pouring, while the integrated drip-retaining system preserves the clean lines and ensures optimal oil storage. This oil dispenser embodies the formal precision, clarity of thought and subtle humor that characterize Konstantin Grcic's work.
Konstantin Grcic
Born in Munich in 1965, he first trained as a cabinetmaker before studying at the Royal College of Art in London. In 1991, he founded his studio, now based in Berlin. His work encompasses product design, exhibition projects and collaborations with the worlds of fashion and architecture. His works are represented in the world's most important museums. A member of the Academies of Arts in Berlin and Munich, he has received numerous international awards.
Since the very beginning, Konstantin Grcic has naturally found his place in the bauhaus-shop.de collection.
His design approach - which prioritizes usability and functionality - is a perfect fit for the Bauhaus philosophy. The structural clarity of his products and their rigorous construction embody the movement's historic values and make his designs indispensable pieces in our collection.

“A simple inversion transforms a familiar object into something entirely new: turned upside down, a metal funnel becomes an oil container. The gesture is immediate, almost self-evident – and yet it fundamentally changes its meaning and use. This is not a ready-made, but a reinterpretation. Like Magritte’s ‘Ceci n’est pas une pipe’ (This is not a pipe), it reminds us that our perception can change. The funnel is no longer a funnel – it is an oil container.”
Einfaches Befüllen
Den Edelstahl-Deckel öffnen und die Silikondichtung herausziehen. Das Öl in die Menage gießen (das Befüllen kann mithilfe eines Trichters erleichtert werden). Die Dichtung wieder einsetzen und mit dem Deckel verschließen.
Einfache Reinigung
Von Hand mit warmem Wasser und flüssigem Spülmittel abwaschen. Die Reinigung der Innenseite kann durch die Verwendung einer Flaschenbürste effektiver gestaltet werden. Auch die Silikondichtung darf ausschließlich von Hand gewaschen werden.
