Vase 61-17 - Green and Light Brown - Bay Keramic - c1970s

This Bay Keramik vase, Form 61-17, is a true testament to the legacy of mid-century German pottery.

The lower section displays a striking graphic pattern in light brown, while the upper half is adorned with a soft mint green glaze that gracefully melts into the design below. The curved, wide handle is not only visually striking but also delightful to hold, adding a tactile elegance to this already impressive piece.

Bay Keramik’s emphasis on eye-catching colours and textured surfaces made their ceramics highly sought after during the mid-century modern era, and this piece beautifully embodies that innovative spirit. The fluidity of the mint glaze combined with the rich earth tones of the lower section creates a dynamic contrast, making this vase a perfect statement piece for any interior.

Known for blending modernist aesthetics with intricate craftsmanship, Bay Keramik was one of the most influential German pottery manufacturers from the 1950s to the 1970s. Their designs, often bold and experimental, helped define post-war European ceramic trends. 

Whether you’re a collector of vintage ceramics or simply appreciate high-quality craftsmanship, this vase offers both form and function in a timeless design.
