A pair of black and red spherical vases by Bay Keramik, West Germany, from the 1960s.

Splendid pair of spherical vases in glazed ceramic produced by the famous West German manufacturer Bay Keramik in the 1960s. Their perfectly spherical shape and contrasting colours — deep black and vibrant orange-red band — make them two emblematic pieces of German Mid-Century Modern design. Both carry their original labels as well as their respective stamps: 690-12 and 690-18. Ideal for a vintage interior, they add a graphic and warm touch to a console, shelf, or coffee table. These vases are in very good condition, with no cracks or chips, and show only minimal signs of wear, visible only up close. Dimensions: Large vase: H16 × Ø25 cm – opening: 8.5 cm. Small vase: H12 × Ø17 cm – opening: 6 cm. Total weight: 2.678 kg.
