AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Bay Keramik – 208-20 – West Germany – structured relief-/lava glaze – Mid-Century
Expressive vintage ceramic vase from West Germany.

Especially characteristic is the exceptionally plastically and highly textured relief-/lava glaze. Dark brown and black tones meet warm ocher, beige, and cream tones. The rough, partly crater-like surface texture gives the vase a particularly striking and individual character.

The combination of the clear cylindrical form and the lively glaze is typical for decorative West German ceramics of the Mid-Century period.
