Where was Jasba pottery made?
Jasba pottery was made in Germany. In 1926, Jakob Schwaderlapp obtained a lease to establish his workshop in Baumbach. The name of his brand came from combining the first two letters of his first name with the first two letters of the town. Jasba produced ceramic vases and other decorative objects until the 1970s, when it began to exclusively manufacture industrial tiles. On 1stDibs, shop a range of Jasba pottery.

The sculptural vases in the set interpret traditional vessel forms like a pitcher in a contemporary vein while referencing Pre-Columbian art with an eclectic twist. The vases are decorated with tone-on-tone ochre brown matte glazes on the outer surfaces and semi-matte black glazes on inner surfaces, allowing the complex reliefs to dominate the composition. The vases feature a central wide band of brutalist, rhythmically spaced mythic animals, derived from archaeology or from a wide range of Folk Art sources. The handles are interpreted not as functional parts of the design, but as an important aesthetic feature that was commonly used by West German pottery designers and artists in context of Krug Vase (Jug Vase, or Handled Vase) for their expressive possibilities.
