A Scheurich Keramik Fat Lava vase made in West Germany in the 1960s-1970s. This vintage ceramic piece features an impressive clean, cylindrical form.
The entire piece is covered in a crystalline glaze that spreads from bronze to olive, on a black base, creating a unique sense of depth and gravitas. The organic, speckled patterns are unique to each piece, allowing you to enjoy the powerful expression characteristic of Fat Lava. The sheen changes with the light, adding a touch of glamour to its subdued appearance.
Its linear silhouette pairs well with branches and dried flowers, adding a vertical line to any space. It can also be displayed as an object on its own, a striking accent for mid-century or modern interiors.
The bottom features an embossed model number and an unglazed ring foot. This is a unique piece with the glaze expression and presence characteristic of the West German era.
This is a good vintage item with no cracks, chips, or other damage, but as it is a vintage item from the 1960s-1970s, there may be some signs of age such as scuffs, minor scratches, and glaze unevenness. Please understand this as part of its charm when purchasing.
