I confess these are the only Marei Keramik examples I own, but they are remarkable because they demonstrate the range of glazes seen from all German manufacturers in the 60s and 70s. In this little sampling, one sees a super-glossy orange glaze with a dark underglaze peeking through; a glaze of delicately painted white drops over blue; a heavy, burnt black glaze now commonly known as “lava” over both blue and red; a splendid mix of violet, black and blue glazes cascading downward over one another; and a foamy, white and black glaze covering a wonderfully variegated green. Each piece, despite being molded, is hand decorated and thus unique — one of the best aspects about collecting mid-century ceramics.
