AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fat Lava, a distinctive example of East German pottery produced by VEB Haldensleben (short for Volkseigener Betrieb), a factory in the former GDR known for its "Fat Lava" style. About the product: Manufacturer: VEB Haldensleben (successor to the famous Carstens Uffrecht company). Period: Probably late 1960s or 1970s. Design: Characterized by a geometric pattern with bright colors (green, yellow and brown) on a gray-beige mottled ground. The embossed dark lines that delimit the color fields give the vase a rougher, tactile texture typical of the period. Style: Belonging to the broader Mid-Century Modern pottery movement, the specific glaze with bubbles and thick layers is called Fat Lava. Markings: The vase is usually stamped with a model number (e.g. 3095 B or similar) and the mark "Made in GDR"
Country of origin: Germany
Period: 1960s to 1970s
Brand: VEB handesleben
Height: 11 and 16 cm
Bottom diameter: 6 and 8 cm
Top diameter: 3.5 and 6 cm
