Bay by Bodo Mans West Germany Art Pottery Pair of Ceramic Vases, 1950s
About the Item
A very elegant pair of twin vases, crafted by Bay Keramik and designed by Bodo Mans in the 1950s, that embody the charm and innovation of mid-century West German ceramics. These petite yet captivating pieces stand at 17 cm (6.70") tall with a width of 15 cm (5.99"), making them an exquisite addition to any collection or interior space.
The vases are adorned with a matte clay grey glaze, evoking a sense of calm and understated elegance. This soft, muted tone is beautifully complemented by the intricate tribal-inspired decor, adding a touch of ancient mystique. The design feels both timeless and contemporary, with patterns that speak to the human connection to nature and heritage.
Both vases bear the distinctive Bay marking: Bay W. Germany- form: 62-17
