Zwilling J. A. Henckels is a knife manufacturer based in Solingen, Germany. It is one of the largest and oldest manufacturers of kitchen knives, scissors, cookware and flatware.
On 13 June 1731 Peter Henckels registered the "Zwilling" logo with the Cutlers’ Guild of Solingen. This makes Zwilling one of the oldest trademarks in the world.
Built in the Art Nouveau Style in 1907 by architects J. Wendler and Otto Heinrich Westphal.
The façade is decorated with beautiful mosaic work, statues and the famous Zwilling (German for Twin) brand logo depicted in gold. The building is classified as a cultural monument and example of a Kontorhaus - office/retail, low-rise, 6 floors.

Welcome! I am an Artist/Photographer based in Edinburgh, Scotland. My interests are wide and varied and this is reflected in my subject matter. I enjoy finding the beauty in even the most mundane subjects and the challenge of depicting the small details which are sometimes overlooked. Where possible, I research my subjects to give me a better understanding, which in turn allows me to adapt my approach to each one. I do not restrict myself to any particular style or media as this gives me the freedom to create my vision on each individual piece. I hope you enjoy browsing my galleries as much as I have enjoyed creating the works. Copyright © Yvonne Johnstone 2024. All rights reserved. All artwork in this gallery is original and uniquely...
