The vessel features a sophisticated dual-glaze aesthetic: a tactile, speckled pumice-like texture on the neck and shoulders that provides a muted, stone-like contrast to the high-gloss relief pattern at the base. The striking circular motifs are rendered in saturated shades of turquoise and deep amber, offering a bold geometric rhythm that anchors the piece. This artisanal vessel serves as a powerful focal point for any curated interior, from a minimalist contemporary space to a lush, eclectic lounge.

Perfectly scaled for a mantle or a teak credenza, this vase measures 6 inches in diameter and stands 9.75 inches tall (based on its authentic 25cm height marking). It remains in great vintage condition, showcasing the unique glaze variations and craftsmanship that make original West German pottery highly prized by collectors. Minor scuffs and surface blemishes appropriate to age are present, providing a lovely vintage character and an authentic aged patina. This soulful piece of European ceramic history is ready to bring a layer of storied design to your home collection. See less
