Large Scheurich West German Floor Vase in Bold Red and Green Harlequin Glaze, Marked W.Germany, Mid-Century Modern

Here is a vase that simply refuses to be ignored. A generously proportioned West German floor vase by Scheurich, dressed in a bold patchwork of fiery red and deep emerald green, each glossy panel outlined like stained glass and finished with a rich chocolate brown interior. Marked W.Germany on the base with its original model number, it is a confident piece of mid-century studio ceramic that brings instant warmth and a little theatrical swagger to a room. Stand it on the floor by a fireplace, fill it with dramatic dried branches, or simply let it hold court empty. At 41.5 cm tall it has real presence, and that hand-glazed harlequin pattern means no two panels are quite alike.

Styling & Collectors Inspiration

West German pottery loves company, so let this one lead a chorus of colour and texture. Group it with the warm tones of our Vintage West German Fat Lava Handled Vase in Orange and Green Volcanic Glaze for an instant 1970s tablescape, or play the gloss of this piece against the molten texture of the Vintage West German Fat Lava Vase with Striped Glaze and Red Drip Base. Collectors building a serious shelf will want the 1960s West German Fat Lava and Hand-Painted Ceramic Vases, Set of Six nearby, while the moody West German Fat Lava Vase in Brown Volcanic Glaze makes the perfect quiet foil to all that red and green. Mix high gloss with matte, tall with squat, and let the colours do the talking.
