Product description
Hutschenreuther – Sculptural Matte White Porcelain Vase, Germany, late 20th century
This sculptural porcelain vase was produced by Hutschenreuther, one of Germany’s most established porcelain houses, known for combining technical refinement with modern design sensibilities. Executed in matte white porcelain, the piece emphasizes materiality, surface, and form over decorative glazing.
The vase is defined by its vertically structured relief, recalling natural strata, weathered stone, or bark-like textures. These irregular, tactile surfaces contrast with the softly asymmetrical opening and the cleanly finished interior, creating a tension between controlled manufacture and organic expression. The restrained, almost architectural silhouette situates the piece firmly within the language of postwar and late modern German porcelain, where abstraction and texture replaced figurative ornament.
The matte finish absorbs light rather than reflecting it, allowing shadows to articulate the relief and giving the vase a quiet sculptural presence. Though modest in scale, it reads as an object of substance—equally suited as a standalone sculptural accent or as part of a curated group of modernist ceramics.
The base bears the Hutschenreuther Germany mark, confirming authentic manufacture.
