Product description
**Discover the Genius of Martin Freyer: A Pair of 1960s-1970s Op Art Porcelain Vases** In the vibrant world of 1960s-1970s design, **Martin Freyer** stood out as a master of innovation, especially with his remarkable creations for **Rosenthal**, the distinguished German porcelain manufacturer. Freyer seamlessly blended the captivating style of **Op Art** into his designs, creating porcelain masterpieces that continue to intrigue and inspire collectors today. **Op Art Masterpieces: A Striking Duo** This pair of **Rosenthal Op Art vases** is a testament to Freyer's unique ability to manipulate shapes, lines, and textures, resulting in visually mesmerizing patterns. Both vases, seen here, demonstrate his characteristic play with light and shadow, inviting viewers to explore the shifting, tactile surfaces that transform as they are observed from different angles. - **Large Vase Dimensions:** 25 cm (Height) - **Small Vase Dimensions:** 16 cm (Height) x 8.5 cm (Width) x 6.5 cm (Depth) The taller vase presents a rectangular silhouette with a complex, undulating surface pattern that captures the viewer's attention with its elegant verticality. In contrast, the smaller, cylindrical vase has a more organic, textured relief that evokes natural formations, making it a perfect counterpoint to the taller piece. Together, they create a dynamic visual interplay between **geometry and organic form**. **Craftsmanship and Attention to Detail** At the base of each vase, you’ll find the unmistakable mark of **Rosenthal**, symbolizing their commitment to **fine porcelain craftsmanship**. The **matte white finish** on these vases enhances their sculptural quality, highlighting the intricate surface details without overwhelming the simplicity of their forms. Freyer's minimalistic design language, characteristic of the 1970s, reflects the era’s fascination with clean lines and unadorned elegance. **A Touch of History** Both vases are in excellent condition, showcasing a **slight vintage patina** that adds authenticity and a sense of history. These vases, while showing some signs of use consistent with their age, retain their timeless charm and remain highly collectible pieces of mid-century design. **Martin Freyer: Visionary Designer** Martin Freyer (1909-1975) was not only known for his designs at Rosenthal but also as the creator of iconic works, including the **Volkswagen logo** and **opera stage sets**. His work at Rosenthal between 1964 and 1974 produced some of the most innovative relief decorations in glass and porcelain, solidifying his status as a true design visionary. Explore this captivating duo and bring home a piece of Freyer’s artistic legacy—two distinct yet harmonious expressions of **Op Art** in fine porcelain.
