This Fat Lava vase, likely by Dümler & Breiden, was produced in West Germany between the 1960s and 1970s. Its beautiful balanced form, combining a rounded body with a gracefully extended neck, makes it a striking vintage ceramic piece.
The coral-like reddish-brown pattern spreading over a cream base covers the entire vase, creating a unique rhythm and texture. Large abstract leaf motifs adorn the body, with accents of green, brown, and yellow, giving it a bold and graphical appearance characteristic of the 1960s. The interior is glazed with a turquoise-like finish, offering a subtle yet attractive color contrast.
Though small, it has a strong presence and can be used as a single-flower vase or simply displayed as an object to add character to any space. Its design pairs well with mid-century and retro-modern interiors. This piece allows you to enjoy the unique ornamentation and glazing typical of the West German period.
This is a well-preserved vintage item with no cracks, chips, or flakes, but as it is a vintage item from the 1960s-1970s, it may show signs of age such as scuffs, minor scratches, and glaze irregularities. Please purchase with an understanding of its unique character.
