Rare matched pair of Bunzlauer Keramik Art Deco stoneware vases, circa 1930s. Hand-painted geometric motif featuring stylized gazelles in ochre and burnt sienna against a cream ground, with bold cobalt blue and teal-green horizontal banding. Wheel-thrown stoneware. Both vases marked underside "Made in Germany / BP23 / D.340."
A specialist confirmed attribution to Bunzlauer Keramik, pattern BP23/D.340, consistent with the Art Deco period output of the Royal Ceramic Technical School (est. 1897).
• Dimensions: 8" H × 3.75" D (widest) × 3.25" D (base)
• Material: Wheel-thrown stoneware, hand-painted glaze
• Maker's Mark: "Made in Germany / BP23 / D.340" impressed underside on both vases
• Condition: Good — one vase exhibits a superficial rim crack that does not penetrate the wall and does not affect structural integrity or display presentation
Why We Love It: Matched pairs from this period and pattern are exceptionally difficult to source — most surface as singles. The BP23 gazelle motif is among the most collectible of Bunzlauer's Art Deco output, and interest in pre-war German studio ceramics is surging among both Art Deco and Bolesławiec collectors. If you've been watching for a pair, this is it.
