About the Item

stunning (Ø 28cm) and heavy (1362grs) RUSCHA ART Wall Plate History of the company RUSCHA KERAMIK was originally founded in 1905 by Georg Schardt and was originally called Klein & Schardt. The company was established in Rheinbach. In 1948, his son Rudolf Schwardt took over the company and renamed it Ruscha. Ruscha was one of the leading factories of the ceramic era. Ruscha produced masterpieces that are still highly sought after today. Ruscha closed its doors in 1996. (RUSCHA is a syllabic abbreviation of his name.) The timing of the re-founding ensured that the company was in a good position to benefit from Germany's post-war growth boom. RUSCHA KERAMIK became a leading manufacturer during the "golden age" of Western German ceramics and is credited with some of the era's key developments. It produced some very successful and innovative forms and glazes, including the 'Vulcano' décor (Otto Gerharz, 1951)—which heralded the move towards thick, dripping fat-lava glazes—and the iconic no. 313 (Kurt Tschörner, 1954), probably the period's most famous shape. Hans Welling, Adele Bolz, Heinz Siery, and Cilli Wörsdörfer were among other notable designers to work for RUSCHA. Ruscha was celebrated for exquisite wall plates, plaques, and tiles—manufactured for both indoor and outdoor applications—as well as its high-quality vases. Specimens from the 1970s will frequently exhibit remarkable lava and volcanic glazes. When RUSCHA closed its factory in 1996, Scheurich acquired many of its designs and molds; distinctive silver RUSCHA labels were sometimes applied to the subsequent production. Notes on identification: White clay was used practically exclusively. The rare examples made with red-brown clay are thought to date from periods when normal supply sources ran out. Embossed and incised base-numbering was used for vessels. Pieces were never molded with "Germany" or "West Germany." Production Period around 1973 :-: in good condition with a micro chip on upper rim (see photo) :-:
