ABOUT PRODUCTID 30169
This cylindrical ceramic vase, produced by Scheurich in West Germany during the 1970s, belongs to the Stripe series—a hallmark of mid-century modern German design. Crafted from stoneware, the vase features balanced proportions—40 cm in height and 20 cm in diameter—and a minimalist, functional form. Its surface is adorned with a rhythmic, hand-painted pattern of horizontal stripes in shades of blue, grey, and brown; these subdued colors form a harmonious palette characteristic of the 1970s. The semi-matte, slightly satin glaze enhances the subtle texture and imparts a calm, understated character. The original Scheurich label remains affixed near the rim, confirming the vase’s authenticity. Condition: preserved in original state, with no visible cracks or chips; minor surface scratches and typical signs of age may be present, consistent with the period.This vase tells the story of an era when German ceramics sought a balance between decorativeness and everyday function. The geometric stripes evoke the order and optimism of the 1970s, while the cool, muted tones bring a sense of quiet reflection to any space. The stoneware body and hand-applied glaze speak of artisanal precision and respect for material, as if the object itself whispered the values of a bygone age: simplicity, attention to detail, moderation.The Scheurich vase can be displayed solo on a low sideboard or shelf, where the rhythmic interplay of stripes will complement a neutral wall. It would work well in mid-century modern interiors, paired with warm-toned wood, glass, or minimalist ceramics. It can be combined with plants of simple, architectural form—such as monstera or sansevieria—or arranged alongside a collection of books and a geometric 1970s-style poster, emphasizing the room’s balanced, modernist aesthetic.
