Scheurich, founded in 1928 in Kleinheubach, became one of the leading makers of West German Art Pottery during the post‑war boom. Their 1960s Fat Lava pieces are celebrated for their expressive surfaces, experimental glazes, and strong Mid‑Century Modern silhouettes. Today, they remain highly collectible for their craftsmanship, colour intensity, and unmistakable retro character.

This vase displays beautifully, with rich colour depth and tactile glaze relief. A classic example of authentic WGP (West German Pottery), ideal for collectors or anyone looking to add a bold mid‑century accent to their interior.

In very good vintage condition with only light, age‑appropriate wear. The striking red and black Fat Lava glaze presents beautifully, with rich colour depth and strong volcanic texture typical of Scheurich’s 1960s work. No chips, cracks or repairs. Minor surface rubbing and tiny glaze irregularities from manufacture, as expected with West German pottery of this era.
