Giant Ruscha Fat Lava Wall Disc Sculpture Mid Century Modern Pottery Art

About the Item

This striking, extra-large Ruscha wall disc sculpture showcases the distinctive craftsmanship of mid-century German art pottery. Designed with a vibrant fat lava glaze, this piece displays a visually captivating combination of deep red, intense black, and contrasting blue-green tones in a textured circular pattern. The central area features three raised ceramic discs surrounded by a rugged, lava-like border, radiating outwards into a bold concentric design. Marked “786/3” and “Ruscha handgemalt” on the back, this decorative wall object is an outstanding example of Western German Pottery (WGP) and embodies the bold aesthetic of the Mid Century Modern era. This substantial, collectible piece makes a powerful decorative statement, perfect for enthusiasts of mid-century design and unique ceramic art.
