THE ITEM
This chic and sleek work of mid-century Modernist design is by Oberhessische (Upper Hessian) Keramik by Walter Becht KG, Schlitz, Germany. 

Crafted from white clay, the abstract form features the softly rounded angles of a sliced segment. The simple but elegant form makes this an excellent piece for the beautiful glaze. The matte exterior glaze is smooth, speckled Powdered Blue with a flowing layer halfway down the vase body.

A BIT OF HISTORY

Unfortunately, little is known about Oberhessische Keramik, Walter Becht KG and the oldest known documentation about the company dates from 1969. Their designs are often misattributed as Jopeko. Known designs by Becht are vases produced in the 1970s in Selenium red and Cadmium yellow. It is also known that glazes were made by the Manz firm in Cologne. Becht closed its doors in 2010.
