West German Pottery



I have started a small collection of West German pottery. I prefer the more subdued colors, rather than the bright ones. I have not invested much time or money into this collection. All of the pieces were under $5 a piece, and were not sought out, but stumbled upon. I love the texture of the lava glaze, which are the two light colored pieces on the left.

  2. These look really lovely together. I too am a collector of West German Pottery, but tend to go for the much brighter pieces. This display looks gorgeous! Emma

  3. Seriously, you must be a magnet. I'm convinced. I am constantly attempting to stumble upon pottery like this... which wouldn't really be stumbling since I'm very active in my quest. Every time I enter a thrift store I think it's going to be the day...maybe tomorrow! Great collection.
