This ceramic vase from the 1970s exemplifies the artisanal craftsmanship of the mid-century modern era, enriched with folk art influences. The geometric, faceted body widens toward its angular base and tapers gracefully to a narrow neck. The main color is a creamy beige with a matte, subtly speckled finish and a natural, slightly rough texture. A vivid green central band, adorned with hand-carved brown sgraffito floral and geometric motifs, draws visual focus. Thin turquoise lines distinctly separate the color fields, while additional green accents appear on the rim and base. The vase is crafted from ceramics, with intentional irregularities and visible, hand-etched lines that emphasize its unique, handmade character. The condition is very good: no cracks or chips are present, only minor signs of age and use, a gentle patina, and slight glaze imperfections typical of genuine vintage pieces. The vase tells the story of the 1970s—a period when individuality was sought through experimentation with texture and color, and folk influences merged seamlessly with modern geometry. Its raw surface and bold, manual decoration evoke a world where beauty arises from material honesty and simplicity. Every mark and uneven incision is a testament to the artisan's hand and an era that valued authenticity and the uniqueness of everyday objects. This vase can be paired with natural wood, stone surfaces, or textiles with a pronounced texture—such as linen runners or wool throws. It works equally well in a living room designed in the mid-century modern spirit or within a more eclectic collector’s interior, where it may serve as a counterpoint to minimalist forms. Consider combining it with ceramics of raw texture or glassware in green or amber tones, highlighting the dialogue between tradition and modernity. The listed price refers to one piece
