RARE CARSTENS TÖNNIESHOF ATELIER VASE Nr. 100 (19 cm) REFUND were reminiscent of 18th-century SwedishThis very rare decor is from the first Carstens Tnnieshof Atelier series (1962 64) by Gerda Heukeroth and Heinz Siery. The as yet unnamed pattern is comprised of contrasting geometric 'fields' in smooth matt teal green painted with hash marks interlocked with others in dark sandy espresso brown that stand out in slight relief. Gerda Heukeroth was responsible for the Atelier decors and Heinz Siery for the shapes. CARSTENS TNNIESHOF was founded in 1946
