This Scheurich ceramic vase from the mid-century era features the striking "Strawberry" design. The design is characterized by a textured, dark brown surface accented with vibrant red, teardrop-shaped glaze elements, giving it a distinctive, tactile quality.
Made of ceramic in West Germany, this piece measures 52 cm in height. The combination of the rough, porous base glaze and the glossy red inlays demonstrates the experimental glazing techniques characteristic of West German ceramic production of this period. The base bears the corresponding model number and origin mark.
The vase is in very good, age-appropriate vintage condition with no subsequent damage (no chips, no hairline cracks). A few tiny, circular, light-colored dots are present on the prominent red glaze (see detail photo). These are expressly not subsequent impact damages, but rather original firing defects typical of the manufacturing process (broken glaze bubbles/pinholes) from the 1960s/70s. They underscore the authentic, handcrafted character of this Fat Lava classic.
This sculptural object is ideally suited as a standalone decorative element in a modern or mid-century inspired interior. It adds a strong splash of color and complements both minimalist and eclectic living concepts.
