Modernist vase sculpture by Peter Müller for SGRAFO.

This remarkable modernist vase signed by Peter Müller for SGRAFO perfectly illustrates the creative spirit of European ceramic design in the post-war era. Straddling the line between a utilitarian object and a sculpture, this piece captivates with its organic volumes, architectural silhouette, and almost mineral presence. Its compact format concentrates all the expressive power of Peter Müller’s work, whose creations are distinguished by a constant exploration of form, material, and the dialogue between craftsmanship and modernity. Produced by SGRAFO, a manufacturer recognized for its artistic ceramics of the 20th century, this work reflects the modernist aesthetic that profoundly influenced European decorative arts from the 1950s to the 1970s: clean lines, relief work, and the valorization of material. Much more than just a vase, this piece resembles a true decorative sculpture. Its size allows it to easily find its place on a bookshelf, console, desk, or within a composition of ceramics and art objects. Presented alone or accompanied by a few graphic branches, this vase reveals the richness of its volumes and play of light. An authentic vintage piece in beautiful antique condition with slight signs of wear consistent with its age.
