Where was Jasba pottery made?
1 Answer
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 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. In this set, the small handles on two Aztec vases...
