This ceramic liqueur bottle, produced by Alkohol & Söhne in Germany during the 1980s, takes the striking form of an enlarged vintage stamp. Its deep, mustard-yellow glaze envelops both the sculptural, rounded handle and the generous, slightly chamfered rectangular base. The glossy ceramic surface is uniformly smooth, with subtle tonal transitions inherent to the application of the glaze. On the front, a bold black inscription—'Alkohol & Söhne Sprithauser—seit 1111'—creates a strong graphic presence and contrasts with the warm body tone. The handle is crowned by a metallic, silvery accent—likely a stopper or a decorative cap—adding an industrial emphasis and a playful visual twist to a traditionally utilitarian object. The careful geometry, seamless finish, and the balance between the iconic handle and substantial base are characteristic of postmodern barware design from the late twentieth century. The surface is free of visible seams or casting marks. Condition: excellent, with no cracks, chips, or noticeable traces of use. This bottle encapsulates the ironic energy of the 1980s—a decade when everyday objects delighted in exaggeration and visual puns inspired by pop art. The mustard yellow glaze and outsized form recall the era of home bars and witty domestic rituals, when design aimed to surprise and amuse. The flawless ceramic reflects light across its contours, as if each angle were eager to recount a story from a time when function and fun were inseparable, and bold graphics played a central role in object aesthetics. It could be grouped with Memphis-style barware
