This tea container from 1960s Germany exemplifies the functional design language of mid-century modernism. Crafted from ceramic, it presents a compact, softly rounded silhouette measuring 8 × 7.5 × 9 cm, with a subtly tapered base. The surface is finished in a warm beige glaze, gently speckled with brown and gray to create an earthy, natural effect. The glossy finish highlights the smoothness and cohesion of the form, while the unglazed, matte reddish-brown underside adds a rustic accent. The lid is secured with a robust brass-colored metal clasp and hinge, ensuring tight closure and practical utility; the metalwork displays a mild, authentic patina. The overall construction remains minimalist, with well-balanced proportions that blend utility with aesthetic restraint. The condition is described as very good: only two fine hairline cracks in the glaze and slight wear on the metal parts are visible, with no significant chips, cracks, or repairs.
