SOLD Yet another superb 1960s design by Cari Zalloni for Steuler. From the 'Facette' range this is a large lampbase in a fabulous caramel coloured glaze. For legal and safety reasons we can only supply lampbases unwired - ready for the customer to get rewired to their own requirements - this is a fairly quick and inexpensive job. Steuler 'Facette' items are rare - not coming onto the market often - in several years of trading this is the first we've had! Would look brilliant displayed in a contemporary home setting. Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups. SIZE: Height 11.5in/28.5cm Weight 3180g (08/150)

These are fantastic quality, highly collectable items and don't come on the market frequently and, at this size, it's pretty rare too! Marked to the base with the Steuler factory symbol and '195/30'. Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups. SIZE: Height 11.5in/29cm Weight 1620g 03/250

1960s West German Four Disk Pottery Wall Hanging
|
|
|
|
SOLD
They don't come much funkier than this that's for sure! A wonderful four disk pottery wall hanging dating from the late 1960s and undoubtedly West German - quite probably from one of the quality potteries - perhaps Ruscha or Schaffenacker judging from the wonderfully colourful glazes. Consisting of four disks of equal size, the base disks made from a rough textured matt brown clay decorated with high gloss brown glazed balls and bright orange circular glazed cups. All threaded together with a piece of leather stringing. Hand marked to the underside of the last disk with the initials 'HT'. Fabulous!

1950s Villeroy & Boch (Luxembourg) Handled Dish (Dark Blue Design)
|
|
|
SOLD
Dating from the late 1950s or thereabouts here is a fabulous handled dish (to be used for nibbles or bon-bons I suspect - I'm fairly certain it's not a candleholder because there's no recess and the decoration would be obscured by the candle). I think these dishes are fabulous - we originally had five available in different colours for sale individually - this one has a lovely blue and black design. Impressed to the base with 'Villeroy & Boch Made in Luxembourg' however the impression has been infilled with glaze and is virtually impossible to read on this particular dish but is much clearer on some of the other dishes.

SOLD Dating from the 1960s or thereabouts here is a very decorative little ceramic vase from the West German ceramics manufacturer, Carstens. For a time Carstens used the Goldscheider factory in Austria to produce some of their items which is why some, like this, are marked with Austria to the base and not West Germany.

Rare 1960s Otto Keramik (West Germany) Red and Black Lava Glazed Vase
|
|
|
|
Dating from the 1960s here is a fantastic large (9.5 inches in height) lava glazed vase from Otto Keramik designed by the legendary Otto Gerharz and Kurt Tschorner. Fully hand-made - very few would have been produced and this is therefore an extremely rare and desirable vase. It looks incredible on display - this is the vase that pretty much epitomises the term 'Fat Lava'. With a red drippy base topped off with thick bubbly black lava, the interior a pale turquoise glaze and with the customary felt base (blue). Groovy! Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups. SIZE: Height 9.5in/24.5cm Weight 1460g (03/85)

Rare HUGE 1960s Otto Keramik (West Germany) Red and Black Lava Glazed Floor Vase
|
|
|
|
Dating from the 1960s here is an incredible lava glazed floor vase from Otto Keramik designed by the legendary Otto Gerharz and Kurt Tschorner. This matches the vase above however at 19 inches it's almost twice the height and weighs a staggering 6470g! I've personally never seen such a huge piece of Otto Keramik - this is, in my opinion, the Big Daddy of Fat Lava! Fully hand-made, as above, very few would have been produced which, combined with its size, makes this an extremely rare and desirable vase. It looks breathtaking on display - with a red drippy gloss glazed base topped off with chunky, bubbly black lava and a dark blue glazed interior. Someone has at some point picked off the felt that would have been on the base (presumably to see if the vase was marked in any way and not realising that the felt was an original feature). Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups. SIZE: Height 19in/48cm Weight 6470g (03/300)
