This set of fabulous, West German art pottery vases adds rare pieces for your collection. Equally gorgeous in your mid-century home as well as other design styles, they are a great way to add accents into neutral décor schemes. They will bring new life to your table, mantle and displays. The large vase is stamped Dümler & Breiden's "128 20 GERMANY," and the small vase is stamped "W-GERMANY Jasba 113045."
West German art pottery (sometimes referred to simply as Fat Lava or German art pottery) has become increasingly popular in recent years. The pottery is famed for the use of bold, bright colors—often set against black pumice lava glaze. Sculptural shapes, tactile designs and painterly qualities combine to create a range of ceramics that is genuinely striking.
Dümler & Breiden were one of the biggest German ceramic producers. Based in the Hohr-Grenzhausen region of Germany, they were established in 1883, and closed in 1992. Their output encompassed quite a diverse range from pieces inspired by Pop Art or primitive folk art to more traditional pieces.
Jasba was founded in 1926, by Jakob Schwaderlapp in Ransbach-Baumbach (who went on to form Ceremano in 1959). The name is derived from his name and the town where it was located (Jakob Schwaderlapp, Ransbach-Baumbach). Production of vases ceased in 1975 and the company concentrated on industrial items and tiles (which they still make today).
