Vintage Two-Handled Vase - Dümler & Breiden 1096


Late 1950s - early 1960s vase by the German maker Dümler & Breiden. Dating is difficult with D & B as they didn't acknowledge partition and use "W.Germany". It is pattern number 480 in a speckled grey white finish with a brown band sandwiched between two textured bands in a nod to the burgeoning fat lava style. There is some blue speckling, albeit in a rather haphazard style and mainly around one handle. This handle also has a bit of a graze with some glaze removed. There is also a small unglazed patch on the rim so it is my hunch that this is a second. Most of the irregularities are on one side so if it's turned round it looks fine!
