Vintage German Drip Glaze Earthenware Jug



SOLD

Small gold lined pale green and black jug shaped posy vase from Germany. 1950s/1960s era marked with the form number 520 and 8,5 which, in common with most German ware, signifies the height in cm. No maker's mark. Some light surface marks and a couple of small chips in the base. One is under the footring and barely noticeable, the other rather more on the top of the base across the gold line. It has some water staining inside so has been used.
 
8.5cm x 8.5cm

Retro Small Handpainted German Vase




Small black and gold vase, flared top and bottom and handpainted with a red, white and gold flower on one side and a small leaf motif on the other. It is coloured burgundy on the inside and the rim and base are both coloured gold. It is marked 1008 and 4 on the base as well as "Foreign" and "Handgemalt A". There is another mark around the base, opposite "Foreign" but it is indistinct. The style of the numbering suggests Germany but it could easily be Austria or Switzerland. I would imagine age to be around 50 years. There is some loss of gilding around the rim but otherwise it's in excellent condition. Please note the small white paint spatters have now been removed!

Lovely 1960s style oval boat shaped bowl by Dümler & Breiden of Germany. It is Pattern No 1096 with a brown drip underside and coffee and cream run inside with a gold rim. It has the familiar crossed sword with D & B pommels of the mark on the base. Apart from some wear to the thick gold rim it's in very good condition.
