Danish Design Icon by RAADVAD.

There is a very good reason why the Raadvad breadslicer has become such an iconic design and is famous worldwide. It combines store function, aesthetics, and longevity so beautifully and convincing.

Raadvad commissioned the Danish designer Ove Larsen in 1933 to design a breadslicer for them. As far as I could find out it came on the market in 1939. This model had both the Raadvad name and the Royal crowns in low relief in front and a lovely curved handle.

The breadslicer only changed a little over the next decades. Around 1960s or 70s the design was simplified and modernized. The Royal crowns disappeared, the handle got a more simple shape and now it was lacquered monochrome. It is this model you have here.

Unfortunately during the 1990s Raadvad stopped the production of the breadslicers. Maybe because people preferred to purchase pre-sliced bread.

Raadvad is a reputable Danish company established in 1759 and is well known for their high end quality kitchen equipment which still is on the Danish market. They started making bread slicers in 1924.
