1970s West German Fat Lava Vase by Scheurich Keramik - Hexagonal "Honey" Coloured - Model 297-26
Good vintage condition, not cracks, tiny chip on the base which has been filled in with black by a previous owner and this is reflected in the price.

11.5 cm Diameter
Measuring 98 × 69 cm, this large antique Arts and Crafts style mirror certainly defines the room. With similar mirrors labelled as Liberty of London, I can’t be certain of this. Perfect as an over mantle mirror or an entrance hallway mirror. With a hammered copper finish and moulded Celtic inspired details. A lightly foxed, bevelled mirror plate gives the piece authenticity and a feeling of age without detracting from its primary use.
This is a heavy mirror and features the original, strong handing chain, which has been reinforced with more modern picture hanging wire.
This dramatic, large, unique, possibly French mantle clock would fit well into any bold, bright, boho/bohemian even maximalist interior. Vivid purples, bright oranges, a unique addition to your home.
This piece truly is unique. The “x” impressed into the base of the clock, suggests this this was a one off, experimental piece. Clearly designed and executed by a trained hand. Circa 1910, I have been unable to ascertain the origin of the clock.
The mechanical clock mechanism was worn out beyond economical repair, and has been replaced with a new quartz battery movement while retaining the original dial and hands. In order to retain the authenticity of the clock, a 3D printed a bracket has been made to hold the existing brass cover in place to the rear of the clock.
