The relief catches light beautifully, so it works especially well on a simple shelf, pedestal, or dark wood surface where the pattern can fully stand out. A good choice for interiors that mix clean lines with more tactile, expressive objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBay Keramik \u003c\/strong\u003e(Eduard Bay GmbH), better known as Bay-Keramik, was a West German ceramics manufacturer founded in 1933 by Eduard Bay in Ransbach-Baumbach in the Westerwald “Kannenbäckerland” region. The company produced decorative and utilitarian ceramics, switching from terracotta to glazed ceramics in 1936, and became one of the key makers of post-war West German art pottery, especially known for its colourful, textured “Fat Lava” glazes and designs by Josef Koch and later Bodo Mans from the 1950s–1970s. Production ceased in 1998, but Bay pieces are now sought-after classics of West German ceramics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bay Keramik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56938337796471,"sku":"1975","price":179.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/0434\/3415\/files\/1975_24.01.2026_1_Vase_BayKeramik_Red_Black_Ceramics_Glossy_954-30_30_5-1.jpg?v=1774549410","url":"https:\/\/www.berlinretrofinds.com\/products\/midcentury-ceramic-vase-bay-keramik-1960s-1970s","provider":"Berlin Retro Finds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
