A vintage ceramic vase from the Haldensleben region of Germany, believed to have been produced in West Germany around the 1960s to 1970s.
This piece possesses a quiet presence with its straight, refined cylindrical form combined with a slightly thick rim.
Based on a matte black, the striking turquoise blue band layered near the mouth creates an impressive color contrast that tightens the form. Fine irregularities can be seen on the surface, and the thickness of the glaze and the fluctuations unique to handmade work create a characteristic Fat Lava texture.
With a design that suppresses decoration, the color and texture stand out, adding a modern accent to any space, whether used for flowers or as an objet d'art.
While no manufacturer's mark can be confirmed, it is a West German vintage ceramic vase that evokes the regional and historical context of what is believed to be Haldensleben.
This is a good vintage item with no cracks, chips, or other damage, but as it is a vintage item from the 1960s to 1970s, there may be some age-related scuffs, minor scratches, or uneven glaze. Please understand this as part of its charm before purchasing.
