AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A duo of vintage German ceramic vases featuring contrasting sculptural forms and distinctive glazes: a tall, dark grey Amano vase with fine vertical lines, paired with a smaller pink vase featuring a textured crackle optic glaze.

- Left Vase:
Small vintage ceramic vase by Elsterwerda, Germany, presumably dating from the 1950s/60s.
The vase has a simple conical shape and a pink glaze with a distinctive crackle effect, creating a beautiful contrast with the dark brown lower section.

Height: approx. 13 cm / 5.1 in
Diameter (widest point): approx. 8 cm / 3.1 in
Inner diameter of opening: approx. 3 cm / 1.2 in

Condition:
The vase is in very good vintage condition, with no cracks. There is a small mark/chip on the edge of the base (see last two detail photos).

- Right Vase:
Geometric ceramic vase with a matte brown-anthracite finish, and fine hand-painted vertical lines. The design has a graphic, modern, and architectural feel, making it a wonderful fit for minimalist, postmodern, and Mid-Century-inspired interiors.
The original label reads “handbemalt / handpainted / Made in Germany,” and the model number 553-26 is impressed on the base.
Likely dating from the 1980s to early 1990s.

Dimensions:
Height: approx. 26 cm (ca. 10.24 inches)
Inner diameter of the opening: approx. 5.5 cm (ca. 2.17 inches)
Diameter at the widest part: approx. 12.5 cm (ca. 4.92 inches)

Condition:
Good vintage condition with minor age-related wear. Please refer to the photos for a closer assessment.

Please note:
Our decorative objects are not new but originate from the 1930s to 1990s. These are pre-owned items that may show signs of use, age-related patina, and occasionally minor production flaws. Additionally, slight color variations between the photos and the actual products may occur due to lighting effects.

Shipping:
The vases will be carefully packaged and shipped with insurance and a tracking number.
