The company, formally known as \u003cem\u003eMajolikafabrik Rheinbach Jean Fuss and Sohn\u003c\/em\u003e (abbreviated to Marei), quickly became a prolific producer of household and decorative ceramics. Throughout the 1950s\/60s, Marei capitalised on the post-war boom, producing bold, highly textured wares that were distributed locally and exported across Europe and North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarei is perhaps best known for its experimental and vibrant decors, which perfectly encapsulate the quintessential 'Fat Lava' aesthetic of the era. Sought-after glaze lines include the intricate 'Brügge', the Mediterranean-inspired 'Capri', and the highly textured 'Kolibri', often referred to by collectors as the snakeskin glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough economic pressures and shifting interior design trends eventually led to the factory's decline towards the end of the 20th century, Marei Keramik's striking forms and bold colours remain highly collectable examples of mid-century craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTHIS LISTING\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1960s\/70s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePlanter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRed, Charcoal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e13.5cm tall, 15.5cm (6\") diameter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eExcellent condition with no wear that we can see\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marei Keramik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51050732748967,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0405\/5839\/5559\/files\/IMG_0407_b6ce948b-13bb-4b22-b7cc-fd8fcfd0e01a.png?v=1785471196","url":"https:\/\/thatretropiece.com\/products\/marei-keramik-west-germany-6-planter-in-red-charcoal","provider":"That Retro Piece","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
