Fat Lava Collection - Fat Lava The West German Pottery market, which emerged mainly in West Germany after World War II, was re-evaluated as Fat Lava in the 2000s and became a collector's item worldwide. Manufactured by Ceramano, Model 185, Designer Hanns Welling Size: Height 18cm, Width 11cm, Era: 1960s, Country of Origin: Canada This decoration is called the Rubin series and was created in 1961 by Hanns Welling, a designer who was representative of the time. It is a truly iconic piece, featured on the cover of Fat Lava textbooks. The following explanation is also provided in the text: "A low vase from the Rubin series. The bottom has a hand-carved signature of 178 Rubin W.GERMANY along with the decorator's initials. Height 7.5cm. This series was designed by Hanns Welling in 1961 and has variations using smooth and rough glazes. Teapots are rare." There is a handwritten signature on the bottom. I believe this work is classified as having a smooth glaze. The last photo was taken with the UFO-shaped 178 Rubin, which was featured on the catalog cover. I think many people will be surprised at how small the piece is. I have listed multiple works with the same decoration. I hope you enjoy collecting them as a set. #fatlava #midcenturymodern #vintage #WestGermanPottery #ファットラヴァ #ファットラバ
