Ruscha Keramik Germany Vintage Ceramic Vase With Japanese Decoration

About the Item

We kindly suggest you read the whole description, because with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects. Black ceramic vase with Japanese decoration painted and enameled in relief, this vintage product was made between 1960 and 1965 by Ruscha Keramik a famous West German company, and belongs to the series called "Nippon" designed by Ermst Borens in 1959; on the bottom shows the model number and design. The company Ruscha Keramik was founded in 1948 and closed in 1996, producing high-quality ceramics with exclusive design and very particular colors; during the '50s, '60s, and '70s, the golden age of ceramics in Germany, Ruscha potters experimented with colors, glaze and shape creating objects with extremely distinctive styles and color combinations, which remain unique for this period of production (unmistakable is the "Fat Lava" style). Most of the best designers of that time worked for Ruscha, among them Kurt Tschorner, Otto Geraharz, Hanns Welling, and Adele Bolz, and contributed to make Ruscha the best company producing both vases and particular, unique and patented wall objects. Measures diameter cm.13, height cm.31. For all our shipments we use special packaging materials (wooden crates, styrofoam, etc.) for maximum protection and safety of the objects.
