Dina Kuhn was born on April 26, 1891 in Vienna. She began an eight-year course at the arts and crafts school in Vienna in 1912. Her teachers included the architect and designer Josef Hoffmann, the painter and designer Franz Čižek, the painter and graphic artist Kolomon Moser, the architect Oskar Strnad, and the ceramist Michael Powolny. During her apprenticeship, Dina Kuhn designed ceramics for the Wiener Werkstätte, which she joined in 1917. By 1922 she had created about 100 designs for ceramic figures, wallpapers and fabric samples for the community. In 1923 she founded her own ceramic studio, the art ceramic workshop Dina Kuhn, together with her brother and Emanuel Iskra. She designed ceramic chimney cladding, tiles, stoves, lamps, and vases and worked closely with the stove factory Iska. Dina Kuhn also designed ceramic objects for the Friedrich Goldscheider factory, the Augarten porcelain factory and for the Bimini glass factory founded in 1923 in the mid-1920s. In 1925 she was awarded a silver medal for her designs at the Exposition Internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels moderne in Paris. In 1926, the Bimini company decided to expand its production to handicraft ceramics. They set up a ceramic studio in Neu Titschein near Ostrau, whose artistic direction was taken over by Dina Kuhn until 1937. The repression by the Nazis against Jewish entrepreneurs, forced the owners of Bimini, August and Josef Berger and Fritz Lampl, to emigrate. Dina Kuhn left Neu Titschein and in 1937 made first contacts with the ceramics manufacturer Waechtersbach, where she worked as a decorator and modeler after 1938. In August 1940, she moved permanently to Schlierbach. Some designs from the Viennese creative period were later carried out by in Wächtersbach. After the Second World War, Kuhn retired from working life. She died on May 28,1963, in Schlierbach.
