West German Art Pottery
West German art pottery is essentially a term that describes the time period from 1949-1990. This became the early way to describe the pottery, as the country of origin, with numbers indicating shape and size, was often the only "mark" on the base. Although company names are now better known and many items are attributed to specific makers, the more general term "West German pottery" remains in common use.

"Fat Lava" is a popular term that refers strictly to a fairly small subcategory of glazes, but is all too often mistakenly used as a synonym for West German pottery.

A common style of the basic brand was "W. Germany", xxx shape number / or - xx height in cm. The manufacturer's name was often on a self-adhesive sticker prominently affixed to the body of the piece but usually lost over time.
