Charming vintage pottery vase by Strehla from former East Germany, form 1518, featuring all-over slightly diagonal yellow stripes on a white ground. The ribbed sculptural body and graphic decoration are characteristic of East German studio pottery from the 1960s.
Its rhythmic striped pattern gives it an almost Op-Art feel, making it a lovely piece for Mid-Century interiors, collectors of GDR pottery or vintage ceramic displays.
