Christa Häusler-Goltz for Rosenthal — Architectural Bisque Porcelain Vase Duo | 1970s Studio-Line Modernism

A sculptural and beautifully balanced vase duo by Christa Häusler-Goltz for Rosenthal Studio-Line, designed in the early 1970s — the period in which Rosenthal transformed industrial porcelain into a medium of architectural modernism.

Minimalist in gesture yet rich in spatial intelligence, these vases are defined by clean geometric volumes, subtle relief patterns, and the serene tactility of **matte bisque porcelain**. They embody the spirit of a decade when Rosenthal collaborated with architects, sculptors, and designers to create objects that could sit comfortably between art and functional design.

Design & Material

Both vases feature:

* **Matte bisque exterior** with a soft, chalk-like tactility
* **Glossy white glazed interior**, emphasizing shadow and depth
* **Architectural silhouettes** with subtle Op-Art reliefs
* **Perfectly proportioned volumes** that read almost like maquettes for modern buildings

Their quiet elegance makes them feel more like sculptural models than traditional vases — an aesthetic Rosenthal actively cultivated in parallel with Bauhaus and Ulm School ideals.

About the Designer

Christa Häusler-Goltz (b. 1930) played a significant role in shaping Rosenthal’s shift into architectural and sculptural design during the 1960s–70s. Her work is distinguished by clarity of form, structural rhythm, and a sensitivity to how light moves across surfaces — qualities that connect her practice to contemporaries such as Martin Freyer and Hans Theo Baumann.

Like many Studio-Line designers, Häusler-Goltz approached porcelain as a spatial medium: her pieces are rarely decorative, but rather **abstract, architectural, and serene**, aligning perfectly with the modernist domestic landscape.

Collector’s Note

This duo represents Rosenthal at its most sophisticated — when porcelain became a site for artistic experimentation rather than ornamentation. Ideal for collectors of:

* German modernist ceramics
* Architectural design objects
* Rosenthal Studio-Line
* Bisque porcelain sculpture

Timeless, understated, and full of structural intelligence.
