ABOUT PRODUCTID 30492
The WMF Ikora metal vase from the 1960s is a refined example of German mid-century modern design, blending a precise silhouette with distinctive decorative flair. Crafted entirely from metal, the vase features a cool, silvery metallic tone with a satin-matte finish that provides a subtle sheen. The signature Ikora pattern—swirling, cloud-like textures—creates a dynamic, almost iridescent effect, interrupted by vertical black enamel stripes running from rim to flared base. Measuring 25 cm in height and 14 cm in width, the vase stands on a small, round foot. Its proportions are balanced, with a smoothly rounded body tapering gently toward the neck and base, and the seamless construction reveals no visible joints. The surface displays scratches and minor signs of wear typical for authentic vintage pieces, with no significant dents or structural damage. It remains in good condition, preserving its original character without visible restoration.This vase embodies the spirit of German modernism, where technical mastery meets ornamental experimentation. The metallic surface reflects light with understated restraint, while the dynamic Ikora pattern tells a story of form and texture innovation—hallmarks of an era seeking a new visual language in applied arts. The black enamel stripes set a graphic rhythm, subtly referencing Bauhaus influences, and soften the vessel’s oval silhouette. It is an object that quietly recalls a time when even everyday accessories could serve as statements of style.The vase can be paired with other mid-century modern décor—Murano glass, geometric candlesticks, or minimalist ceramics in neutral tones. It works well against dark wood or concrete backgrounds, where the silvery metal and black stripes gain depth. In a living room
