This iconic ceramic pitcher vase is a superb example of West German Pottery (WGP) from the 1960s and 1970s. Manufactured by Ruscha Keramik, this popular form carries the model number 313 and is highly sought after by collectors of the period.

The vase features a classic pitcher or jug form with a large, inviting handle, emphasizing its utilitarian origins while serving as a sculptural piece of art. It is finished in a warm beige / brown glaze with slight variations, giving it an appealing earthy look. Its simple, strong shape ensures it remains a timeless statement piece.

Ruscha Keramik, founded in 1905, was one of the most creatively successful and influential WGP factories, defining much of the Mid-Century German ceramic style. Located in the heart of the Westerwald region, Ruscha was known for pioneering experimental glazes, including the famous Vulcano line. Their collaborations with renowned designers produced many of the era's most recognizable shapes, cementing Ruscha's reputation as a leader in avant-garde ceramic design.
