A piece with weight and presence—both in form and in story.
This mid-century ceramic vase features a deep cobalt blue glaze, wrapped with a band of stylized horses in motion. The figures are rendered in a graphic, almost folkloric style, giving the piece a sense of rhythm and movement as it turns in the light.
The shape is compact and architectural, with a narrow neck and gently flared body that feels distinctly mid-century in its proportions.
Marked on the underside with form number and “W. Germany,” indicating production during the West German pottery period, likely mid-20th century.
It stands beautifully on its own, but also holds a few stems effortlessly—something simple and organic works best against the bold surface.
No flaws noted.
