This striking Ilkra amphora vase, model 1028, is a beautiful example of the iconic Fat Lava style from the 1960s. The design combines a classic amphora shape with the expressive, textured glazes characteristic of this period in West German ceramics.
The vase is crafted from ceramic and finished with a rich, earthy color palette of brown and beige. The surface displays a complex, almost organic texture reminiscent of tree bark or solidified lava, adding a strong tactile element. The two graceful handles on the sides enhance the classic silhouette, while the cream-colored interior provides a beautiful contrast.
The object is in excellent vintage condition, with the original finish and characteristic glaze beautifully preserved. The base is marked, confirming the authenticity of this piece.
This vase is an excellent addition to a collection of Mid-Century Modern ceramics or serves as a striking decorative accent in a contemporary interior. The warm tones and unique texture instantly bring atmosphere and character to any room.
