1960s Mid-century "Archais" vase by Heinrich Fuchs for Lorenz Hutschenreuther

1960s (1968) mid-century vase by Heinrich Fuchs for the prestigious manufacturer Lorenz Hutschenreuther. This piece belongs to the highly collectible "Archais" series. Made in Germany. The vase features a dramatic, architectural silhouette with a deeply textured, geometric relief pattern that plays beautifully with light and shadow. Crafted from premium white biscuit porcelain, it boasts a refined matte, unglazed exterior that accentuates its clean, sculptural lines, while the interior is fully glazed. With its brutalist-inspired structure and minimalist aesthetic, this timeless optical art (Op Art) vase serves as a standalone sculpture or a sophisticated vessel for minimalist floral arrangements. A must-have for collectors of mid-century modern design and European art pottery. Marked on the base with the official Hutschenreuther lion insignia, the series name "Archais", the model number, and the incised signature "Fuchs" confirming model 6139. It's in excellent condition, no scratches or chips.
