About the creator: This item falls in the category of vintage West German pottery. This unique style of pottery was produced by a number of different manufacturers in West Germany, including Scheurich, Bay Keramik, and Ruscha. Each manufacturer had their own individual style, but they all shared the common trait of producing high-quality pieces with distinctive glazes. What the numbers mean on West German pottery varies. In some cases, the numbers represent the date of production. More often, the numbers represent the piece number — indicating what order it was produced in — or the style of the pottery. I assume that the number on this pitcher means that is was number 902 out of 1219 similar vases that were made.
