The Welz Pfungstadt porcelain vase from the 1970s is an example of German modernist craftsmanship, made from high-quality porcelain coated with a glossy, cool white glaze that reflects light with exceptional clarity. The body gently flares upward, with sculptural, vertical ribs unfolding in an organic, petal-like form. The opening is oval and asymmetrical, accentuating the modernist character of the design. Decorative gold lines, hand-applied along the rib edges and at the base, create a subtle contrast with the white porcelain. The proportions—approximately 20 cm in height and 12 cm in width—make the vase both decorative and functional. The surface remains smooth and free from damage, with the gilding well preserved and only minor traces of age-appropriate use. Condition: very good, with no cracks or chips.This vase evokes the story of the 1970s, when German manufacturers sought harmony between minimalism and understated luxury. Its organic silhouette recalls the unfolding of flower petals, while the gold lines subtly emphasize the rhythm of contemporary elegance. Each reflection on the pristine white surface conjures the atmosphere of modern interiors, where functional art was meant to be present yet unintrusive—reflecting the era’s pursuit of refined simplicity.Within an interior, the vase can be paired with other mid-century ceramics or pastel-colored glass. It works well atop a natural wood console or a modern table, where its sculptural lines are enhanced by reflected light. The vase may be displayed with delicate flowers or left empty to highlight its modernist form. It is well suited to both mid-century modern settings and eclectic vintage collections.
