Mid-century Modern Fat Lava Red and Brown Stoneware Vase by Scheurich, W Germany
Located in Grythyttan, SE
This fat lava stoneware vase from Scheurich, is a striking example of mid-century modern 1960s West German pottery, captures the bold spirit of the era. This particular piece, model 203-18, stands 18 cm tall, with a mouth opening diameter of 6 cm and a bottom base diameter of 10 cm. Its glaze is nothing short of mesmerizing, featuring an extraordinary blend of colors. Predominantly brown, dark brown, and light brown, the vase also boasts a bright red stripe running through its center. This vibrant red band is the highlight, drawing attention and adding a dynamic contrast to the earthy tones. The colors on this vase are truly stunning, with the dark brown glaze setting off the bright red central band beautifully. This combination of hues is characteristic of the fat lava style, known for its thick, lava-like glazes and vivid color palettes. The vase is in very good condition, maintaining its charm and authenticity over the years. Underneath, it is marked with "203-18 W. GERMANY," affirming its origin and craftsmanship. ABOUT SCHEURICH Scheurich was established by Alois Scheurich and Fridolin Greulich for glass and porcelain in 1928. In 1954 Scheurich KG Keramikfabrik commences production of ceramics with the first electrical tunnel kiln. Animal figures with built-in clocks were highly popular gift and decoration articles in the 1950s. A fat lava vase is a "must-have" element of mid-century design, and this Scheurich piece is no exception. Its vibrant colors and intricate design make it a standout item for any collector or enthusiast of vintage West German pottery...

Crystalline Glaze Ceramic Vase, Red and Beige, American Art Studio Pottery
Located in Clifton Springs, NY
The monumental studio pottery ceramic vase is decorated with crystalline glaze in striking, dark red and beige palette. The vase was hand thrown on a wheel; beige color crystals on ombre colored base, shifting from purplish tones on top to deep, dark red on the bottom, were grown in a kiln during a very long, controlled firing. Each crystalline piece is unique due to the nature of the glaze. The vase was allowed to develop an abundance of distinct, graphic crystals, creating a free-flowing abstract pattern and adding rich texture to the minimally shaped piece. The vase was made by Wizards of Clay...

Antique and Vintage Vases for Sale

Whether it’s a Chinese Han dynasty glazed ceramic wine vessel, a work of Murano glass or a hand-painted Scandinavian modern stoneware piece, a fine vase brings a piece of history into your space as much as it adds a sophisticated dynamic. 

Like sculptures or paintings, antique and vintage vases are considered works of fine art. Once offered as tributes to ancient rulers, vases continue to be gifted to heads of state today. Over time, decorative porcelain vases have become family heirlooms to be displayed prominently in our homes — loved pieces treasured from generation to generation.

The functional value of vases is well known. They were traditionally utilized as vessels for carrying dry goods or liquids, so some have handles and feature an opening at the top (where they flare back out). While artists have explored wildly sculptural alternatives over time, the most conventional vase shape is characterized by a bulbous base and a body with shoulders where the form curves inward.

Owing to their intrinsic functionality, vases are quite possibly versatile in ways few other art forms can match. They’re typically taller than they are wide. Some have a neck that offers height and is ideal for the stems of cut flowers. To pair with your mid-century modern decor, the right vase will be an elegant receptacle for leafy snake plants on your teak dining table, or, in the case of welcoming guests on your doorstep, a large ceramic floor vase for long tree branches or sticks — perhaps one crafted in the Art Nouveau style — works wonders.

Interior designers include vases of every type, size and style in their projects — be the canvas indoors or outdoors — often introducing a splash of color and a range of textures to an entryway or merely calling attention to nature’s asymmetries by bringing more organically shaped decorative objects into a home.

On 1stDibs, you can browse our collection of vases by material, including ceramic, glass, porcelain and more. Sizes range from tiny bud vases to massive statement pieces and every size in between.
