This is a handled vase by Bay Keramik, manufactured in West Germany in the 1960s or 1970s. The piece bears the model number 691-17 and is characterized by its faceted shape and characteristic feather decor, typical of the era's aesthetic. The vase is made of ceramic and measures 17 cm in height. The body has a faceted, bulbous shape with a light beige, speckled glaze. A hand-painted motif in earthy brown tones, reminiscent of feathers or ferns, adorns the exterior. The rim and base are accented with a dark brown glaze, while the interior features a deep blue, glossy surface. The overall condition of the vase is very good and consistent with its age. The glazes are intact and show an even sheen, indicating careful storage over the years. The piece retains its original character and is an authentic example of West German ceramic design. This handled vase is a versatile decorative object that works well both as a standalone piece and in a group of mid-century ceramics. Its organic shape and warm hues blend well with vintage, mid-century modern, or bohemian style interiors.
