The Peter Bruckmann & Sons silverware factory was a silverware production factory in Heilbronn that was founded in 1805. The company's artistic products, particularly tableware and cutlery, established a reputation that extended far beyond Heilbronn for the company, which had been family-owned for four generations. Peter Bruckmann, a grandson of the founder and co-owner of the company from 1887 to 1923, was chairman of the German Werkbund. In the early 20th century, very important Art Nouveau artists and architects such as Hans Christiansen, Peter Behrens, Josef Hoffmann, Joseph Maria Olbrich and Richard Riemerschmid worked for Bruckmann. Other well-known artists of this era who worked for this Heilbronn silverware factory include: Wolfgang von Wersin, Hugo Cauer, Wilhelm von Eiff, Rudolf Rochga, Fritz Schmoll, Paul Haustein, Otto Prutscher, Otto Rieth, Paula Straus, Adolph Amberg, Karl Groß, Emil Lettré, the long-time head of the company's studio Josef Maria Lock and his life partner Hélène Brandt. The important German industrial designer Heinrich Löffelhardt completed his apprenticeship with Bruckmann in the 1920s and was then supported with a scholarship by Peter Bruckmann.
