A postmodern porcelain vase from the Atelier Collection by Thomas, Germany, circa 1980s. The sculptural form pairs an asymmetric wave-cut rim with a fluted column along one side, finished in a scattered multicolor line motif in blue, green, yellow, and black. Thomas, a porcelain marque under the Rosenthal group, produced the Atelier Collection as a designer line distinct from its tableware—pieces intended as standalone sculptural objects. The Op Art line decoration and irregular silhouette place this firmly in the 1980s postmodern moment, when German porcelain houses embraced graphic abstraction over traditional form.
