Mid Century West Germany Ankara Decor Vases by Carstens Tönnieshoff, 1950s

About the Item

These West Germany Art Pottery Ankara Decor vases by Carstens Tönnieshoff from the 1950s are indeed exquisite pieces of Mid Century Modern design. Carstens Tönnieshoff was a renowned ceramics manufacturer based in West Germany during the mid-20th century, known for producing high-quality pottery items with unique designs. The Ankara decor vases exhibit the distinctive style of the era, characterized by clean lines, organicist shapes, and in this case a beautiful pattern inspired on ancient Persia. These vases often feature vibrant glazes and abstract patterns that reflect the artistic influences of the time. The fact that they were produced in West Germany during the 1950s adds to their historical significance and collectible value. This period marked a resurgence in German design after World War II, with artists and designers embracing modernist principles and experimenting with new forms and materials. These vintage ceramic pieces are sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of Mid Century Modern decor for their artistic merit and association with a particular moment in design history. They can serve as striking focal points in any interior space, adding a touch of retro charm and sophistication. Hand-produced in West Germany circa 1955. Stunning in the hand. Measurements: H. 23cm/ 9in H. 23cm/ 9in H. 17cm/ 6.75in
