A striking mid-century ceramic jug of baluster form, featuring a richly applied high-gloss drip glaze. The body transitions from a deep treacle brown at the base and neck to a vivid mottled yellow centre, with organic, flame-like glaze movement typical of studio and West German pottery of the period.
The jug is fitted with a tall, elegantly flared pouring spout and a distinctive loop handle with a rope-twist moulded design, adding both visual interest and tactile appeal. The contrast between the dark upper glaze and the vibrant yellow band creates a bold, decorative statement.
Date:
Circa 1960s–1970s
Origin:
Probably West German or European studio pottery
Materials:
Glazed earthenware
Condition:
Very good vintage condition. No visible chips, cracks, or restoration. Minor surface wear consistent with age.
