About the Item

This rare and large floor vase was produced by Søholm Stentøj in Denmark and exemplifies the studio’s commitment to detailed craftsmanship and bold ceramic expression during the mid-20th century. The vase is characterized by a cylindrical form that tapers subtly toward a narrow neck, balanced by a broad, rounded base that provides both visual grounding and structural stability. The surface of the vase is decorated with an intricate geometric relief pattern, composed of repeating motifs rendered with sharp definition. The raised design adds dimensional texture and interacts dynamically with the vase’s complex glazing. The glaze is a layered combination of deep brown and glossy blue, applied in such a way that the darker undertones settle into the recesses of the relief while the blue glaze flows across the raised surfaces. This contrast in glaze distribution creates a shifting visual rhythm and enhances the perception of depth and movement across the surface. The color palette is typical of Søholm’s mid-century stoneware output, where earthy tones are offset by saturated, high-gloss accents. The brown glaze imparts warmth and natural character, while the blue glaze introduces a vivid, cool contrast, creating an expressive visual balance. The vase is in very good vintage condition, free from cracks or chips. The glaze is intact, with minimal surface wear. The base bears inscribed markings and production numbers that authenticate the piece as an original work from Søholm Stentøj, a ceramics manufacturer based on the island of Bornholm and active throughout the 20th century. Søholm was particularly known for its textured stoneware and experimental glazes, with many of its mid-century pieces now highly regarded by collectors.
