This blue Fat Lava vase is a striking piece of German pottery, probably dating from the 1960s or 1970s. The blue Fat Lava vase is recognisable by its vivid indigo colour and thick layers of glaze, creating a surface reminiscent of solidified lava.
The strong colour gives the vase a confident presence on a shelf, sideboard, dining table or windowsill. It works as a standalone object and also combines well with other ceramics, glass and vintage design.
Blue Fat Lava vase from the 1960s or 1970s
Fat Lava pottery is known for expressive glazes and tactile surfaces. This example brings that character into a contemporary or vintage setting without losing its unmistakable seventies atmosphere.
Use the vase for a small bouquet, dried branches or as a purely sculptural object. The deep blue tone can add contrast to a light interior and create a calm focal point among neutral materials.
Please study the photographs carefully for the exact colour, glaze texture and present condition. The surface is part of the appeal of this type of German vintage pottery and may show natural variation from the firing process.
