Description

View Mid-Century Modern MCM Japanese Pottery Vase – Abstract Lava Glaze – 1950s–60s with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. The piece features a bold, modern hourglass silhouette with a heavily textured, lava-like surface and hand-painted abstract detailing in burgundy red, blue, and black with assorted yellow polka dots. Authentic mid-century modern charm meets handcrafted artistry in this striking vintage studio pottery bud vase, made in Japan during the 1950s–1960s export era. The piece features a bold, modern hourglass silhouette with a heavily textured, lava-like surface and hand-painted abstract detailing in burgundy red, blue, and black with assorted yellow polka dots. The organic, sculptural form and atomic-style graphics are hallmarks of midcentury Japanese ceramics made for Western markets—and perfect for collectors of MCM, brutalist, or wabi sabi design. This is a beautiful and rare example of the playful, modernist design language that defined the post-war era. A standout accent for any shelf, credenza, or retro-themed interior. Will be packaged securely and carefully. Item Details: Era: Mid-century modern (circa 1950s–60s) Origin: Japan (stamped on base) Material: Ceramic with textured matte “lava” glaze Design: Hand-painted atomic-style abstract lines and leaf forms Condition:  Good vintage condition, with some discoloration, natural crazing, minor scuffing, and minor cracking in the ceramic that has been there since it was purchased for my home from a midcentury modern antique store ~10 years ago.
