Fantastic mid-century German vase by KTU Unterstab. A fine example of mid-century German studio pottery! Made around the 1960- 1970's in Germany, Langenhessen. The pottery studio was run by Gudrun Unterstab (daughter of Albert Kiessling) and her husband Ralph Unterstab since the early 1960's.

Albert Kiessling also experimented with similar glazes in the same colour in the decade before he passed away (in 1964). Colour: dark blue and white. Vintage item in EXCELLENT CONDITION.
