Description from the seller
West Germany Fat Lava Floor Vase – Model 420-54 – 1970s
Impressive large-scale floor vase produced in West Germany during the golden era of German art pottery.
The vase features a striking cobalt-blue flowing glaze combined with highly textured volcanic “Fat Lava” bands. The contrast between the glossy deep-blue glaze and the rough lava-like texture creates a dramatic visual effect characteristic of the finest West German ceramic designs of the 1960s and 1970s.
Its substantial size, sculptural loop handle, and bold color palette make it a remarkable decorative statement piece as well as a desirable collector’s item for enthusiasts of West German pottery, Mid-Century Modern design, and Fat Lava ceramics.
Marked on the base: W. Germany 420-54.

* Height: 54 cm
Condition

An attractive and uncommon large-format example of authentic West German Fat Lava pottery from the second half of the 20th century.
