A large and stylish Art Deco vase of glazed earthenware designed by Walther Stock (active 1910-1925) for Velten Vordamm (1913/14-1931) of Germany dating to the 1920s. Several similar Bauhaus era hand-decorated Stock designs for Velten Vordamm are included in the collection of the Smithsonian's Cooper Hewitt Design Museum.

The vintage vase is enveloped in a high-gloss glaze with an overall hand-painted pattern of black over a pale ivory white ground. The vessel has a black band around the foot; the rim, interior and base are also glazed in glossy black. The vase measures 8.75 in. H x 5.5 in. diameter (at widest) and is clearly marked Vordam / Germany / M/5 on base. The vessel is in very good condition with age-appropriate crazing.

Steingut-Fabriken Velten-Vordamm was located outside of Berlin in Germany. A number of the company's employees made important artistic contributions gained through their associations with artistic organizations including the Deutscher Werkbund and the Bauhaus School.
