This small, rounded squat-shaped vase was produced by Jopeko Keramik in Germany during the 1970s, encapsulating the design language of mid-century modern and the 'brusel' style prominent in Central Europe at the time. Crafted from stoneware, the vase features a compact, organic form with a wide mouth and a pronounced thickened rim that hints at both functionality and decorative intent. Its entire surface is enveloped by a crackle glaze – an intricate network of irregular grayish-black lines atop a deep, cool-toned violet base, finished with a subtle satin sheen. There are no other accent colors or painted motifs, allowing the unique texture and color depth to dominate. An original gold and white manufacturer’s label confirms the vase’s authenticity. The condition is excellent – the glaze is uniform, with no chips, scratches, or evidence of wear; all components appear original and unrestored. The form of this German vase speaks to the 1970s, a moment when design sought bold yet effortlessly balanced solutions: the organic geometry is complemented by a tactile, hand-worked surface. The crackle pattern unfolds like a city map, conjuring the subtle dynamism and quiet introspection characteristic of the era’s modernism. Violet light, scattered across the satin finish, appears to hold time still – the vase inviting contemplation through its poised, understated depth. This vessel fits naturally atop a teak
