This Fat Lava ceramic vase was produced in Germany in the 1970s. Made of stoneware, it features a robust, rounded form with a single handle and a narrow neck. The surface is decorated with two wide horizontal bands, each filled with a repeating pattern of raised, vivid red circles outlined by a dark, textured glaze. Dominant colors include a creamy off-white matte base and deep brown with a slightly glossy, almost metallic finish. The handle and neck display a gradient of brown shades, transitioning from darker at the rim to lighter tones towards the body, highlighting a contrast of textures from glossy and smooth to matte and subtly rough. The vase remains in very good condition, with intact glaze and no visible damage. The form of this vase evokes the spirit of the 1970s, where geometric motifs and bold color contrasts defined West German ceramics. The tactile surface shifts between glossy, raised circles and matte areas, creating a sense of rhythm and dynamic pattern. The piece communicates a sense of solidity and authenticity, while the strong color palette suggests energy contained within the ceramic structure. The vase can be placed on a low sideboard or console to showcase its shape and decorative bands. It pairs well with simple wooden furniture, metallic accessories, or textiles in neutral shades. It is worth combining with other mid-century modern elements, such as geometric prints or lamps with metal accents. Natural light will enhance the depth of the glaze, while surrounding it with potted plants or minimalist decorations will allow the vase to express its character and introduce a distinct retro accent to the interior.
