ABOUT PRODUCTID 14550
The Bay Keramik model 690-25 vase represents German ceramic artistry from the 1970s, reflecting the language of Mid-Century Modern and the iconic West German Pottery movement. Its cylindrical form gently narrows towards a straight, subtly rounded neck, all enveloped in a deep navy glaze that transitions to a satiny sheen on the upper portion and a more matte structure below. Two decorative relief bands in muted lavender-gray encircle the top and bottom, establishing a rhythmic division. The central element is an asymmetrical, raised organic motif—suggestive of a leaf or lens—rendered in an olive-to-brown gradient with ochre accents. Characteristic glaze drips and a fine, semi-gloss crackled surface emphasize the uniqueness of its hand-finished texture. The signature 'W. Germany 690-25' is inscribed on the base. The structure demonstrates solid craftsmanship, with precisely molded relief details and a stable base (diameter: 8 cm). The vase measures 25 cm in height, with an 11 cm body diameter and a 6 cm opening. Condition is very good: no chips, cracks, or signs of restoration; only minor, natural glaze variations typical of artisan ceramics from this era. This vase echoes the language of German modernism from the 1970s—a clear, expressive form reflecting the dialogue between functionality and ornament. The heavy layer of navy glaze evokes the stillness of deep water, while the organic motif surfaces as a fleeting memory
