This is a gorgeous piece of german keramik from the Hartwig-Heyne studio in Töpferei. This small jug is in their iconic Matte Special Blue lava glaze. This lava glaze has such a deep rich hue and depth due to the random pitting of the glaze. Bears the stamp of the studio on the base with details on the form. Each piece from this studio is hand thrown and decorated!
Condition:
Good vintage condition free of chips or cracks
About the Studio:
Production from HARTWIG HEYNE consisted of handmade, never molded, studio items. They were fashioned rustically and so are generally heavier than molded or otherwise more finely crafted studio ware. In addition to a pleasing heft, much of HARTWIG HEYNE's output can be recognized by the studio's most famous décor: a thick, matt glaze in the rich blue color commonly known as Yves Klein (aka International Klein Blue or IKB)—a deep ultramarine made famous by its namesake artist and reminiscent of the lapis lazuli used to paint the Madonna's robes in medieval art. Pieces are also found with bright red, orange, and yellow glazes.
