Description from the seller
Rare Mid-Century Find with Original Factory Label!
Bring a bold splash of authentic Mid-Century Modern design into your home with this stunning Scheurich Keramik vase (Model 401-28).
Manufactured in West Germany during the height of the 1960s/1970s "Fat Lava" era, this piece features an incredibly striking and rare multi-colored drip glaze.
The Glaze & Design:
This iconic "ear vase" (Henkelvase) boasts a sleek, narrow neck and a perfect round ring handle. The glaze composition is highly dynamic: a rich, earthy brown base layer topped with vibrant bands of retro cobalt blue and fiery pop red, all overlaid with a thick, frothy, textured white volcanic lava drip.
Collector’s Premium:
This piece features its original purple rectangular Scheurich factory sticker still intact on the body.
Vases with original paper/foil labels are highly sought after by collectors, as most were peeled off or washed away over the last 50-60 years.
Specifications:
Manufacturer: Scheurich Keramik (West Germany)
Model Number: 401-28 (Stamped on bottom)
Height: 28 cm (Approx. 11 inches)
Colorway: Blue, Red, White, and Brown
Condition:
Excellent vintage condition. No cracks, major chips, or repairs.
The original purple factory label is well-preserved. (Note to buyer: Please review all high-resolution photos carefully to appreciate the thick, textured nature of this handmade volcanic glaze).
