A Mid-Century Modern West German 'Fat Lava' Ceramic Jug
Description
A Mid-Century Modern West German ceramic jug, featuring a distinct Mid-Century Modern aesthetic. The body is predominantly covered in a dark brown glossy glaze, with the mid-section characterized by three horizontal bands of a mottled, textured drip glaze in white and brown, commonly referred to as “fat lava.” The neck flares slightly, and it has a single C-shaped handle. The base is impressed with the text “W. GERMANY” and numerical codes “209 – 35,” indicating its origin and likely model/size. The exposed rim of the base reveals an unglazed light tan ceramic body, consistent with stoneware or earthenware.
