Product description
The red ashtray is a fine example of West German ceramics from the 1950s to 1970s, often referred to as Fat Lava ceramics. The thick, glossy layer of bright red and yellow glaze on the inside contrasts beautifully with the rough, dark surface on the outside. The fiery colors inside evoke associations with lava and fire, hence the name "Fat Lava." The asymmetrical, almost organic shape fits within the aesthetic of Mid - Century modern and brutalist ceramic art. Dimensions: w16 x d13 x h4cm. Strehla's ashtray has a combination of earthy colors with bright red and green accents, which fits perfectly into the Fat Lava-like tradition, which was also a popular style in East Germany. Especially the use of red and green with an organic pattern is a feature of that time. This ashtray was not only practical, but also served as a decorative item in East German households, where ceramics played an important role in interior design, perfectly fitting the then popular retro interiors. Size dia 13.5 x h 6cm. The objects are not only functional ashtrays, but also decorative works of art, perfect as eye-catchers in retro or Mid - Century interiors. Today, these types of items are often not used as ashtrays, but rather as decorative bowls or design pieces. In short, these are beautiful pieces of ceramic art that are not only functional, but also make a strong decorative statement! Of course, these showpieces are well packaged and shipped with track and trace.
