A striking, large ceramic vase in the Fat Lava style, originating from Germany in the 1970s. It is a characteristic example of German artistic ceramics from a period characterised by experimentation with intense colours, relief surfaces and strongly contrasting glazes. The vase is distinguished by its organic, rounded form, featuring a comfortable handle and a wide spout. The most eye-catching feature is the unique glaze – the intense orange and yellow surface flows seamlessly into deep shades of brown. The irregular colour boundaries and the ‘flowing’ glaze effect give it the distinctive, expressive look typical of the Fat Lava aesthetic. Standing 44 cm tall, it is a decorative, imposing piece that can serve as a standalone interior feature. It will fit well in both vintage and mid-century modern schemes, as well as in more contemporary, minimalist spaces, where its bold form and colour can act as a striking accent. The vase is in very good condition, with natural signs of age and wear. The striking ceramic surface and original colour scheme are well preserved.
