Projekt wazonu powstał jako efekt Bauhaus’u – ośrodka rzemiosł artystycznych – w pracowni Marguerite Friedlaender w 1930 dla wytwórni porcelany w Berlinie (KPM – Konigliche Porzellan-Manufaktur).
Sygnatura znajdująca się na podstawie to stylizowane berło, firmowy znak KPM, malowany kobaltem. Poniżej namalowany znak zamku Giebichenstein, gdzie mieścił się ośrodek rzemiosł, co jest szalenie ważne, gdyż ten znak używany był tylko na obiektach najwcześniejszej produkcji wychodzącej z ośrodka.
