A tall, SCHEURICH KERAMIK pitcher vase from the 1950s with an abstract fruit motif in yellow, red, turquoise, and black on a bubbly, light gray background. Retains its original "europ linie" foil label. Model Nr. 403/35.


SCHEURICH KERAMIK had its origins in a joint venture launched in 1928 by Alois Scheurich (d. 1968) and his cousin Fridolin Greulich in the small town of Schneeberg near the Czech border in Saxony—wholesaling glass, porcelain, and ceramics. The business was moved to the market community of Kleinheubach in the northeast corner of Bavaria in 1938, and ten years later the partners began to produce household ceramics of their own, selling them under the name Scheurich & Greulich. The partnership was dissolved in 1954, and Alois founded Scheurich GmbH & Co. KG to continue production on his own. The new company employed Germany's first electrical tunnel kiln.

The celebrated designer Heinz Siery was recruited as SCHEURICH’s lead modeler the following year in 1955. In addition to creating his own extensive range of shapes, Siery helped the firm develop its overarching product strategy. SCHEURICH would manufacture an assortment of simple forms that could be made cheaply and then decorated in a great variety of glazes. The natural result was an enormous range of merchandise that was both diverse and easily adaptable. The approach proved altogether successful.

Low prices combined with a dizzying array of attractive designs translated into millions in sales for SCHEURICH, and the company remained one of the largest manufacturers of ceramics in Germany through the 1980s. To keep pace with the public's ever-changing tastes, décors were adapted twice a year. Some of the better-known décors include the hand-painted Montignac (1972–1973); Amsterdam (1974–1975), with its onion motif (Zwiebeldekor); Fabiola, with its flowing, brown-red top glaze; and Jura, with its fossil, or snail, motif.

Among the more famous components of the décors used to finish mid-century ceramics are the unusually thick, often flowing glazes nicknamed "fat lava." (Strictly speaking, "fat" is something of a misnomer, generally thought to be a careless translation of the German word groß—meaning "large," or "thick"—referring here to the depth of the glaze, how much it rises above the surface of the clay, not its viscosity.) The term has proven slippery. Some conflate it with volcanic glazing generally, where the use of certain ingredients cause controlled, gaseous explosions, producing holes in the glazes that are visually suggestive of lava (or the surface of the moon); some apply it wholesale to all German pottery from the mid century! Regardless, fat lava glazes were very popular in the '60s and '70s, and SCHEURICH produced many stunning examples.

SCHEURICH KERAMIK used white clay exclusively. Objects were always formed by mold and were fired at 1000 degrees Celsius. A minimum of 500 pieces were made of every item that was produced. Identifying marks were embossed on the base. Model numbers are three digits long and followed by the height of the object in whole (in a few instances, half) centimeters, usually with a dash separating the two components. Most SCHEURICH items have no embossed company mark. If noted, country of origin appears as either W. GERMANY or WEST GERMANY (occasionally abbreviated to GERM). Many SCHEURICH items retain their original foil or paper labels.

SCHEURICH KERAMIK exported more ceramics than any other German company. Some lines were specifically manufactured for foreign markets. Indeed, the historical distributions of particular forms and glazes suggest that some were produced for specific countries. The bottoms of exported vases are often embossed with the word "FOREIGN" rather than "WEST GERMANY." Not surprisingly, some vases so marked wound up on the home market.

In addition to vases, SCHEURICH's mid-century output included flower pots, ashtrays, piggy banks, candle holders, beer mugs, buffet clocks, and wall plaques. By the late 1980s, the shapes and colors of its vases had become rather pedestrian; this work is not attractive to collectors. As a subsidiary of Sheurich-Group GmbH, the European market leader for indoor and outdoor planters, SCHEURICH KERAMIK is still in operation today.

Works as expected! Good value
Size: 36 Count (Pack of 1)
I bought these because I ran out of Curology patches that I got with the free trial. These work similarly; you’ll need one or two patches to fully get rid of the pimple— it depends on how large & inflamed it is. Even if you need two the first patch will still a do a good job of draining most the gross fluid out. I like that these are more translucent/transparent than some other brands I’ve seen. They’re not obnoxious looking if you’re wearing one or two in the daytime. The adhesion has been great so far. I’ve tried it on bare and moisturized skin and either way it holds up. Once it’s been stuck in place for a few minutes you can apply a moisturizer on your face OVER the patches without them slipping off. Just use a gentle touch. There’s probably cheaper pimple patches from smaller brands but $4.49 (before tax) is definitely a reasonable cost for 30 patches So I gave it 4 stars for value for money. My only qualm is that the small size pimple patches could stand to be at least slightly bigger. Only new closed comedones that are just forming are that small (typically). Otherwise I’m satisfied with this purchase.

The Best for Sensitive Skin & Smells Great!!
Scent: Refreshing, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Scent: Refreshing, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I've purchased this body wash (Awakening) a few times now, because I love it so much! I have my whole family using it, even my child with eczema, and it's really helped her skin. It leaves our skin feeling fresh, nourished, and soft with no irritation. The liquid soap is clear and has a not-too-thick consistency. It lathers well, and I’ve had no issues with leakage. I love that it's free of so many harsh chemicals and is infused with organic and natural ingredients like aloe vera and tea tree oil. It has a wonderful earthy, invigorating scent from the camomile, geranium, and copaiba. You don't need to use much since it's a little more concentrated, and for its generous size and quality, it's worth every penny! I would highly recommend this body wash to anyone looking for a clean, refreshing, and effective body wash!

Best body wash
Scent: Lemongrass, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Lovely body wash that cleans without stripping your skin dry. Fragrance is light and not overpowering. One pump is more than enough for head to toe clean. Would recommend to anyone.

Refreshing and Gentle for Everyday Use
Scent: Refreshing, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This body wash is really nice and refreshing. The scent is light and clean, not overpowering. It lathers well and leaves my skin feeling clean and smooth, not dry. I like the mix of aloe, chamomile, lavender, and tea tree—it feels gentle and calming. The 3-pack is a great value and lasts a long time. Very happy with it.

Wonderful shower gel for sensitive skin!
Scent: Lavender, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is one of the very few body washes that does NOT have junk in it! NO harsh chemicals, NO fake perfumes! It's very gentle on your skin, has a very pleasant fragrance and produces a rich, creamy lather. It is a MUST for sensitive skin. It rinses easily, leaving a soft, smooth feeling all over without any film or residues, and the fragrance, although subtle, LASTS! It is rather pricey for the amount you get. If it weren't for the price, I'd have easily given it 5-stars!
