ABOUT PRODUCTID 41586
This floor vase from the Scheurich Europe Line, produced in Germany in the 1970s, is a characteristic example of the era’s approach to utilitarian ceramics. The tall (52 cm), slender form, with a stable, narrow base and softly flared rim, is crafted from ceramic with a matte, grainy finish. A cool, speckled blue-grey dominates the surface, providing a subtle backdrop for geometric, relief-like decorations. The upper and lower sections are bordered by stylized, crenellated motifs in a light yellowish-beige, while the central band is divided into rectangular panels featuring abstract, raised designs in olive green, burnt orange, and yellow. These tactile details, applied in a visibly textured manner, are reminiscent of mid-century modern and brutalist influences. The construction appears solid and cohesive, with no visible cracks, chips, or repairs. The overall condition is very good, with only minimal signs of use typical for vintage ceramics of this quality.The vase speaks in the visual language of 1970s European modernism, a period marked by a boldness in experimenting with form and surface, paired with an architectural sense of proportion. Its rhythmic reliefs tell the story of an era that sought expression in everyday objects—inviting touch and contemplation of detail. The matte glaze diffuses light, emphasizing a raw, almost sculptural surface, while the contrasting color accents evoke the optimism and confidence of the seventies. The vase seems to say: “I have witnessed a time that valued both function and daring artistic
