On a dark wooden table, in a stylish interior with soft earth tones or within a sleek modern office, this rare West-Germany vintage pottery bowl immediately catches the eye. The subtle shades of purple, green, and deep anthracite create an almost iridescent effect that changes with the light. This creates a sense of calm, harmony, and connection within the space.
This special bowl from the 1970s, shape 334, combines a powerful geometric form with a refined finish. The elegant conical bowl rests on an inverted conical base, giving the object an architectural look. The matte exterior in a mysterious peacock sheen beautifully contrasts with the deep glossy black interior. This gives the piece not only decorative value but also an almost sculptural presence.
With its generous dimensions of 34 x 34 x 18 cm, this is an object that effortlessly elevates an interior without being overpowering. It brings a quiet luxury to a space — not flashy, but refined and full of character. That is precisely what De Tuin Der Kunsten stands for: not a classic webshop, but a curated world full of authentic decoration and affordable art with soul.
This bowl is more than just vintage design. It tells a story of craftsmanship, timelessness, and individuality. An object with just that little quirk that gives an interior personality. The combination of form, material, and color creates a connection between old and new elements in an interior, making spaces feel softer, more balanced, and more human.
For lovers of quality and authenticity, this bowl is a special collector's item. The bowl is signed and in very good condition, which further emphasizes its rarity and durability. Due to its unique finish, no two light incidences are the same — each time you discover new nuances in the surface.
This object also comes into its own exceptionally well in professional spaces. Think of a meeting room, a refined executive office, a stylish reception area, or a quiet practice room where atmosphere and trust are important. This bowl exudes gentle authority and at the same time brings serenity to the environment.
This is not decoration. This is an energy object.
