Mid-Century German Studio Pottery Vase – Abstract Modernist Design (c. 1960s)

This striking mid-century German vase features a tall cylindrical form with hand-painted abstract motifs in vivid yellow and blue, framed by sweeping charcoal lines. The textured matte exterior and rhythmic brushwork embody the modernist studio pottery movement of the 1950s–60s, when German makers embraced bold geometry and clean sculptural shapes.

Stamped GERMANY 513/30 to base. A beautiful statement piece for modern interiors, collector displays, or lovers of European mid-century ceramics.
