Scheurich Fat Lava Vase West Germany 242-22
This striking Scheurich Fat Lava Vase West Germany 242-22 showcases the bold artistic style that made West German pottery so desirable during the 1960s and 1970s. Rich chocolate-black glaze forms the backdrop for sweeping bands of textured brown and cream decoration, creating a dramatic abstract design that immediately draws the eye.
The vase combines strong geometric form with organic movement, giving it a sculptural quality that works beautifully in both vintage and contemporary interiors. The contrasting glazes add depth and texture, while the distinctive pattern wraps elegantly around the body of the vase, ensuring it looks impressive from every angle.
Marked W. Germany 242-22 to the base, this authentic Scheurich vase represents one of the most recognisable styles of the West German pottery movement. Its timeless design complements mid-century modern, Scandinavian, industrial and contemporary décor with ease.
Display it as a standalone statement piece or style it with dried grasses and foliage to highlight its bold silhouette and textured finish.
