About the Item
Sculptural West German Art Pottery Vase by Carstens Tönnieshof, c. 1950s
A striking and highly unique sculptural ceramic vase by Carstens Tönnieshof, handmade in West Germany circa the 1950s. This expressive piece represents a volcanic form, showcasing the bold textures and dynamic glazes typical of mid-century West German art pottery.
Crafted with a strong sculptural presence, the vase features deep surface reliefs and rich, layered glazes that emphasize its organic, eruptive motif. A fine example of Carstens’ experimental mid-century work, blending both brutalist and biomorphic influences.
The underside bears the Carstens signature, the "W. Germany" mark, and the form code: 3077-20. The vase remains in excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks.
