The magnetic principle is the idea of designer Martin Gschwendtner, who created Oh Là Là as his degree project — the bowl received the Form Award in 2015. Handcrafted at the Wendelstein Werkstätten and the Isar-Würm-Lech IWL Werkstätten in Bavaria, two workshops for people with disabilities.

The connection system comes from Gschwendtner’s degree project and is refreshingly direct: lay the boards together, let the magnets engage, the bowl stands. No tools, no screws, no adhesive. The idea lives in the material itself — oak provides structure and aesthetics simultaneously. The fact that the bowl remains puzzling without instructions is not a flaw; it is part of the concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"cm-faq-item\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-q\"\u003eWhat makes oiled oak a good material for a bowl — and how does it age?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-a\"\u003eOak is one of Europe’s hardest and most durable hardwoods — dense, resilient, with a pronounced grain that records the hand of the workshop. Oiled rather than lacquered means the surface breathes, develops a patina over time, and can be refreshed with wood oil when needed. A bowl that becomes more characterful, not less, with the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"cm-faq-item\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-q\"\u003eIs an oiled oak bowl dishwasher-safe?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-a\"\u003eNo — wood and dishwashers are not compatible. Oiled oak handles everyday moisture, fresh fruit, and occasional splashes without difficulty. Standing water should be wiped off. A damp cloth is all that is needed for daily cleaning; wood oil refreshes the surface as required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"cm-faq-item\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-q\"\u003eWhich surfaces and rooms show Oh Là Là to best effect?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-a\"\u003eAs an open bowl, Oh Là Là occupies a footprint of 31 × 31 cm — comparable to a large dinner plate. It works equally well on dining tables, sideboards, and coffee tables. The natural oak grain integrates into both light and dark interiors; the geometric three-part form sets a clear, calm accent without competing for attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"cm-faq-item\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-q\"\u003eHow precisely are the magnets set into the wood — is this genuinely handcrafted?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-a\"\u003eThe magnets sit flush in the oak — visible only as a small circle in the surface, invisible once the boards are joined. This fitting is demanding craft work: each bore must be exact for the boards to engage cleanly. The Wendelstein Werkstätten and IWL Werkstätten produce Oh Là Là by hand — the precision of the magnetic connection is the proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"cm-faq-item\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-q\"\u003eWho is Martin Gschwendtner — and what is the side by side label?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-faq-a\"\u003eMartin Gschwendtner designed Oh Là Là as his degree project — production-ready from the start.
