Large Vintage West Germany Art Pottery Schlossberg Ceramic Jug, 1970s

About the Item

This Schlossberg jug vase, form 279-35, is a notable example of West German ceramics from the 1970s. These pieces were characterized by their bold shapes, vibrant colors, and expressive glazes, which often featured lava-like drips and patterns. The West German ceramics industry of the Mid Century period was renowned for its innovative and colorful designs, with one of the most iconic styles being the "Fat Lava" decor. The term "Fat Lava" refers to the thick, textured glazes often used on West German pottery during that era, creating vibrant and dynamic surfaces. Collectors and enthusiasts value West German ceramics for their unique aesthetic and cultural significance. Pieces like the Schloschberg jug vase are sought after for their retro charm and artistic appeal, reflecting the design trends of the time.
