AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
NO RESERVE
Impressive and monumental floor vase from the famous West German manufacturer Scheurich, bearing the highly sought-after Mid-Century "Nizza" pattern. Founded in the early 20th century, Scheurich established itself in the 1960s and 1970s as the undisputed leader of West German ceramics, renowned for its bold shapes and the quality of its glazes. This model perfectly illustrates the Fat Lava style with its pronounced relief, while standing out with its unique Hispano-Moorish and folkloric aesthetic. Its dense floral friezes and arch-relief motifs evoke antique ornaments, magnified here by an incredibly bright, glossy red glaze. All in all, with its 46 centimeters in height and its flamboyant color, it will have no trouble stealing the spotlight from your furniture, even if you decide to slip just a few dried branches into it. The piece retains its original label and bears the characteristic hollow-molded mark under the base: 480/46 W. Germany.
The object is in very good overall condition, showing only light signs of use typical for its age, with no cracks or major chips. For the technical details, this mass-produced pottery weighs no less than 3500 grams, stands 46 centimeters high, a body diameter of 18 centimeters, a total width with handle of 24 centimeters, and a neck diameter of 13 centimeters.
Take the time to study the photos carefully to appreciate the brilliance of its glaze and the finesse of its relief.
A truly standout, highly collectible piece, perfect for West German Pottery enthusiasts or to energize a retro interior. Shipping will be handled with exceptionally reinforced and oversized packaging to guarantee a safe journey to your home.
