AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Decorative and sculptural ceramic object by Dümler & Breiden from Germany, produced in the period 1965-1975, belonging to the West German Art Pottery tradition.
The objects combine a rough, almost volcanic black texture with a contrasting turquoise relief band in abstract geometric decoration.
The bold design closely aligns with the Brutalist and mid-century modern aesthetics that were characteristic of German design ceramics from the Fat Lava period.
The architectural silhouette form of the vase, sometimes also called the UFO vase, gives the piece a pronounced sculptural presence, making it suitable as both a designer vase and an autonomous decorative object.
With a matching bowl bearing exactly the same drawings and colors.
