Scheurich: World famous from Westerwald

Born from West Germany’s post-war appetite for colour, texture and modern design, Scheurich became one of the country’s most prolific ceramic makers. Through the 1950s, 60s and 70s, its designers produced an extraordinary range of forms and glazes, from earthy geometric finishes to the wonderfully wild textures now associated with Fat Lava pottery. Today, Scheurich pieces bring that same warmth and character to modern interiors, with no two glazes ever seeming quite alike.

Scheurich Abstract West German Vase Model 238

A lovely early Scheurich piece with far more of a 1950s modern-art feel than the heavier Fat Lava styles that followed. The body has a heavily textured off-white glaze, decorated with loose black lines, flashes of turquoise and blocks of mustard yellow and deep red.
