Oven Glove for the KHM

The medieval period was an age of craftsmanship, symbolism, and enduring design — where every object carried both function and meaning. Inspired by this fascinating era, we have developed an exclusive oven glove for the Kunsthistorisches Museum (KHM), bringing echoes of medieval artistry into contemporary daily life. The design draws from the aesthetics of medieval Europe, a time of heraldic patterns, noble textures, and visual language that celebrated strength and protection. Translated into fabric, these references become both decorative and practical: a glove that safeguards the hand while carrying with it the richness of history. More than a kitchen essential, this piece reflects our philosophy at Takemuseum: to transform heritage into design that lives with us, that tells stories in every detail, and that makes even the simplest gesture — like lifting a pan — a moment of connection with the past. Created for the KHM, this oven glove is a tribute to medieval culture, reinterpreted with a contemporary vision. It is functional, meaningful, and designed to keep tradition alive in unexpected ways.

At Takemuseum, we continue to work hand in hand with museums and cultural spaces, turning their collections into objects that inspire, endure, and connect. Let us imagine together how history can shape the design of tomorrow.
