This postmodern vase by ASA Selection, crafted in Germany in the late 1980s or early 1990s, exemplifies the era’s geometric design language. The body, shaped as a flattened, rounded disc, is made of ceramic and finished with a semi-matte glaze in a deep, vivid cobalt blue. A signature postmodern detail is the gently curved, asymmetrical top edge, complemented by a small, slightly raised circular base that ensures stability and lends a sculptural aspect to the piece. The design is free of additional decoration, patterns, or accent colors, focusing attention on the precise lines and smooth transitions between surfaces. The vase is preserved in very good vintage condition, showing only minor surface scratches typical of gentle use, with no visible damage or repairs. In its form, the vase echoes the spirit of the late 1980s and early 1990s: boldness in color and shape, a clear departure from decorative tradition, and the confidence with which an everyday object becomes a manifesto of its time. The satin sheen of cobalt draws the eye, reflecting light like a calm water surface under an evening sky. It seems to tell a story of an era where geometry and intense color serve as means of expression, turning functional objects into sculptural statements. The vase may be paired with a raw, light wood sideboard to highlight the contrast of materials and the depth of the blue glaze. It also works as a solo accent against a neutral wall in a modern living room or bedroom, or alongside other postmodern objects—glass or metal accessories with geometric forms. Interiors inspired by eclectic Memphis, contemporary minimalism, or a collectors’ pop-art context would provide a natural setting for this piece. The listed price refers to one piece.
