Catalog No. 1392
Stoneware, relief, 0.75L, pewter lid.
Design attributed to Paul Wynand.
�Lava-Steinzeug� (lava stoneware), an available glaze option on this piece, was the name applied by Gerz to wares finished with the matte black glaze shown below, found on only a limited number of Art Nouveau (Jugendstil) designs.
Note also the unusual pewter arrangement, with the thumblift shank embedded into the top of the handle. This too was a relatively short-lived Gerz innovation.
Price Range: $150-$225
