An Art Deco period vase of glazed earthenware designed in striking black on white by Walther Stock (active 1910-1925) for Velten Vordam (1913/14-1931) of Germany, dating circa 1920s. The Bauhaus-era art pottery vase is enveloped in a high-gloss glaze with an overall pattern of black over a warm, ivory-toned white ground. The vessel has a black band around the foot; the rim, interior and base are also glazed in glossy black. The vase measures 7.5 in. height x 6 in. diameter (at widest) and marked Vordam / Germany / M/5 on base. Very good condition with crazing, a few small scuffs, and several tiny glaze pops inherent to the firing process.
Similar designs by Walther Stock for Velten Vordamm, including this decor pattern, are part of the Smithsonian's Cooper Hewitt Design Museum collections.
Steingut-Fabriken Velten-Vordamm was located outside of Berlin in Germany. A number of the company's employees made important artistic contributions gained through their associations with artistic organizations including the Deutscher Werkbund and the Bauhaus School.
