More information

About fat lava: Fat lava is a distinctive style of West German pottery produced primarily in the 1960s and 1970s. The term refers to the thick, textured volcanic glazes that create dramatic surface effects. Manufacturers like Scheurich, Roth, and Bay Keramik pioneered this aesthetic, which has become highly collectible for its bold, sculptural forms and rich surface textures that embody the experimental spirit of post-war German design.
