ABOUT PRODUCTID 36464
This West German ceramic vase from the 1970s embodies the bold, sculptural spirit of the era’s experimental ceramics. The multifaceted body, with a geometric silhouette that widens towards the base and narrows at the neck, reveals an architectural presence. The surface is defined by a deep matte black, acting as a backdrop for glossy, dynamic flows of emerald green and intense red glaze. The tactile, rough texture with pronounced reliefs and organic indentations enhances the piece’s volcanic character. Measuring 19 cm in height and 15 cm in width, with a 7 cm opening, the vase is ideal for displaying a single branch or a minimalist floral arrangement. It remains in original, well-preserved condition, free from visible cracks or losses, though minor scratches and signs of age-appropriate wear typical of the Fat Lava style may be present.The vase tells a story rooted in the German avant-garde of the 1970s—a time of fearless experimentation with form and material. Each expressive glaze trail and the contrast between matte black and lustrous color evoke a fascination with nature, movement, and raw energy. The object feels like a fragment of cooled lava, frozen mid-flow, its energetic surface inviting the touch and conjuring the creative freedom of its era.This vase can serve as a striking decorative accent in a living room or study. It pairs well with mid-century modern settings or eclectic collector’s interiors, where it may be placed on a simple wooden console, alongside minimalist ceramics or Murano glass. Set against a pale wall or concrete background and accompanied by lighting fixtures from the 1970s, it will highlight its architectural form and artistic origins.
