The piece captivates with its sculptural, asymmetrical folded form and a striking, minimalist black line decoration.

The dynamic, organic lines mimic the elegant drapery of fabrics and lend the vase an exceptional three-dimensional presence.

The reduced, graphic pattern underscores the pioneering Mid-Century Modern aesthetic of early German post-war modernism.

Marked on the underside with the historic stamp "Rosenthal Germany Kunstabteilung Selb" including the specific dot-dash code for the production year 1951.

The additional underglaze blue mark indicates the individual painter's mark of the decorator from the manufactory workshops.

An exquisite collector's item for lovers of Bauhaus design, avant-garde studio ceramics, and modernist art objects from the 1950s.
