AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Extraordinary door handle and door stop from the 1970s with a distinctive three-dimensional glaze relief. The object shows a strongly sculpted, organically abstract pattern that achieves high visual depth through contrasts of a dark base tone and a light, protruding texture. The relief-like glaze recalls natural formations and is typical of experimental design tendencies of the 1970s in architectural design. Encased in a sturdy metal frame, the piece combines a ceramic surface with functional use in the entrance area. Designed as a door handle or door stop, it unites a sculptural effect with practical function. An authentic example of decorative architectural detail from the 1970s with strong character and pronounced material aesthetics.

The ceramic has no chips or cracks. The metal shows discoloration and wear. (see photos)

The goods are wrapped in padding foil and enclosed in bio-foam within a double-walled carton, shipped via DHL.
