Item Details

This magnificent faience vase is an iconic piece of mid-20th-century Scandinavian design. Created by the illustrious ceramist Nils Thorsen for the Royal Copenhagen manufactory, it belongs to the famous "Baca" line launched in the 1960s. This series is distinguished by a highly innovative glazing technique for its time, allowing for the creation of complex, richly textured, and subtly matte decorations.


 


Standing 20 cm tall with a strict square base of 6 cm on each side, this vase commands attention through its architectural rigor, softened by a small cylindrical neck. The surface of the ceramic is entirely covered with a fascinating abstract and geometric pattern, evoking a runic or tribal language. The interplay of glazes reveals a superb monochrome of deep blues and black, giving the piece remarkable visual depth and a finely textured feel—the true signature of the Baca technique.


 


 


Offered in excellent vintage condition, this Danish ceramic is a timeless collector's piece. It will integrate with natural elegance into a contemporary, minimalist, or "Mid-Century Modern" interior, displayed alone as a small sculpture or adorned with a delicate branch.
