Vintage bottle vase Gunter Erhart SKK Merano / Italian ceramics

Magnificent large bottle-shaped vase in vintage ceramic by Gunter Erhart for the SKK Merano workshop (Italy, 1960s-70s). Superb craftsmanship with hand-painted relief country scenes (grape clusters and floral patterns) on a beige glaze with a very textured speckled/pirited finish. A charismatic collector's piece, right in the heart of Mid-Century Italian design. Artist / Publisher: Gunter Erhart — SKK Merano with Elio Schiavon. Dimensions: Height 31 cm | Diameter at the neck 7.5 cm | Diameter at the widest (base) 13 cm. Signature: ERHART S.K.K. M. Under the base. Condition: Impeccable. No chips, no cracks, glaze perfectly preserved.
