AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
DUE TO HOLIDAY WE CAN SHIP LATER UPON BUYER'S REQUEST!
An impressive and authentic West German ceramic floor vase from the heyday of the German ceramic industry, produced in the sixties or early seventies. This stylish vase combines a bold, timeless design with a particularly beautiful glaze finish, making it a beloved collectible for lovers of vintage design and Mid-Century Modern.
The vase has an elegant, balanced form with a wide, gently flaring neck and a sturdy cylindrical base. The upper portion is finished in a deep, high-gloss ruby red glaze that contrasts beautifully with the warm, matte brown lower body. Between the two colors runs a characteristic cream- to ocher-toned transition that arose naturally during firing. This subtle “flowing” glaze line makes every vase unique.
The combination of the glossy red upper half, the earthy brown lower half, and the organic color transition gives the vase a warm and decorative appearance that fits perfectly in both a modern and a vintage interior. Even without flowers, this vase forms a striking sculptural object.
On the underside the vase is marked with:
* West Germany
* Model number: 200-40
This confirms its origin from the well-known West German ceramic production, globally loved for its high quality and distinctive glazes.
