1970s Mid-Century Modern Red and Black Fat Lava Ceramic Vase by Roth

About the Item

A red and black ceramic vase made in Germany in the Seventies by Roth Keramik. This kind of ceramic has been called Fat Lave KeramiK and it was very popular in Italy and Germany in the Mid-20th century. It's marked West Germany and numbers on the bottom.It is a striking and unique piece of ceramic art that exemplifies the bold and expressive aesthetics of the era. The term "Fat Lava" refers to a style of ceramic glazing that was popular in the 1960s and 1970s, particularly in West Germany. It involves the application of thick, lava-like glazes, often in vibrant colors, creating a textured and three-dimensional surface that resembles molten lava. The vibrant red and black colors dominate the vase, creating a dramatic contrast that catches the eye and adds a bold statement to any space. The glazing technique used for the vase results in a rich and textured surface, with areas of the glaze resembling flowing lava. This dynamic and organic appearance adds a sense of movement and energy to the piece, making it visually captivating and a true representation of the artistry of the era. This Roth ceramic vase encapsulates the spirit of the era, where creativity, experimentation, and innovative use of materials were celebrated. The bold combination of red and black, along with the lava-like glaze, makes this vase a captivating and iconic example of 1970s design, and it continues to be appreciated as a collectible and artistic statement piece in modern interiors.
