West German Handled Ceramic Vase in Red and Black Glaze, 1960s

Mid-Century Modern West German Ceramics

This West German ceramic vase from the 1960s showcases the bold and expressive character of mid-century European design. The hand-applied glazed bands in red, white, and black create striking visual contrast, while the sculptural handle and rounded form add tactile balance. Compact yet impactful, it is a perfect accent for collectors and interiors embracing vintage modernist ceramics.

Bold glazing and mid-century texture
The vase exemplifies the dynamic aesthetic of West German pottery, where expressive colors and layered textures became hallmarks of postwar creativity. The interplay between the glossy red glaze and matte black body gives the piece a sculptural quality, reflecting the experimental spirit of the period.

Collectible West German craftsmanship
Produced by one of the leading West German ceramic makers, this vase reflects the artisanal precision and design innovation that defined the era. Whether displayed individually or among a group of Fat Lava-style ceramics, it offers an authentic glimpse into 1960s European decorative art.
