Pair of Ditmar Urbach Alienware Vases, C.1930, Ceramic, H 32cm, Collection 006
A pair of Czechoslovakian Ditmar Urbach Art Deco pottery vases, dating to around 1930. This style was named Alienware for its unusual glaze. They feature a marbled effect glaze with black lustre pillar details to the neck and a large rectangle on one side of the body. Bottle neck and double handles.
The pottery began as Brothers Urbach. It merged with a factory owned by Rudolf Ditmar's heirs in 1919 and became Ditmar-Urbach. The Nazis took over the factory from the Jewish owners in 1938 and it became part of Ostmark-Ceramic. It was nationalized after the end of the war in 1945.
Would look stunning either end of a mantel or shelf, alone or filled with tonal dried flowers.
Sourced in England.
Height: 32cm
Width (at base): 10cm
