Anemone Porcelain Trio II – Small Vases with Lidded Box by Rosemonde Nairac for Rosenthal Studio-Line (1970s)
A more intimate yet equally compelling composition from Rosemonde Nairac’s Anemone series, this trio pairs the two smaller vases with the corresponding small lidded box. Reduced in scale, the set reveals the precision and delicacy of Nairac’s design language at its most distilled.
The relief—softly rising and clustering like an abstracted bloom—wraps each form in a rhythmic cadence. In this smaller scale, the motif reads almost like a tactile drawing, its subtle shifts in depth creating a nuanced interplay of shadow and light.
Design & Composition
Designer: Rosemonde Nairac
Manufacturer: Rosenthal Studio-Line, Germany
Series: Anemone
Period: 1970s
Material: Unglazed white porcelain (bisque)

This trio consists of:
– Medium vase: 15 cm height × 7.5 cm diameter

The proportions here are more intimate and lyrical: two slender vessels accompanied by a compact, almost jewel-like container. Ideal for refined arrangements or as a quiet sculptural accent.
About the Designer

Within the broader Anemone collection, the smaller pieces demonstrate the scalability of Nairac’s concept. Even at reduced dimensions, the design retains its architectural clarity and poetic resonance.
