Graphic Porcelain Vase Duo – Theo Baumann for Rosenthal, 1964

Rosenthal Studio-Line vase duo designed by Theo Baumann in 1964, pairing two related bottle forms in turquoise and violet purple with crisp black graphic decor. The repeated ovals, bands, and geometric motifs wrap around the glossy porcelain with a precise Op Art rhythm, while the shift in color and scale gives the pair a clean but vivid mid-century contrast.

Place them where the color contrast can read clearly - on a sideboard, console, or open shelf with a plain wall behind them. They work especially well with dark wood, chrome, smoked glass, or a neutral lacquered surface; avoid nearby patterns or extra colorful objects, and let the turquoise and violet carry the composition on their own.
