AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A striking Scheurich vase from the classic West Germany period, a typical example of the sought-after Fat-Lava ceramics of the 1960s and early 1970s. The model features the characteristic combination of a strongly textured, dark anthracite-colored lava surface and bright red, drop-shaped relief elements arranged rhythmically across the entire body. The bold color combination and the sculptural surface design give the vase a dynamic, almost sculptural effect.

The shape is a classic Scheurich design: cylindrical and ascending, slightly tapered at the top, and perfectly proportioned to showcase the vertical decoration. Scheurich is one of the most well-known and successful manufacturers of German ceramics from this era and is especially appreciated internationally for its vibrant glazes and distinctive textures.

This vase is a striking statement piece for modern living spaces, a sought-after collector's item for lovers of West-Germany ceramics, and an excellent example of why the Fat-Lava aesthetic has achieved cult status worldwide. A decorative classic of the Mid-Century era.

The vase has no chips or cracks.

The goods are wrapped in padding foil and enclosed in bio-styrofoam within a double-walled carton for shipment via DHL.
