A striking Scheurich West German pottery floor vase, model 517-45, showcasing the bold glazes and sculptural forms that made German ceramics of the 1960s and 1970s internationally renowned.

The vase features a rich mottled brown and cream glaze with dramatic vertical streaking, creating a wonderfully organic effect reminiscent of bark, flame, or flowing minerals.

Its tall cylindrical form and narrow recessed neck provide a strong architectural presence, whilst the layered glaze displays remarkable depth and movement across the surface.

Produced by Scheurich, one of the most celebrated manufacturers of the West German pottery movement, this vase perfectly captures the distinctive aesthetic associated with the Fat Lava era.

A superb decorative statement piece that works equally well with dried arrangements or displayed on its own as a piece of ceramic art.
