This striking Black Lava bowl by Gertrud and Otto Natzler showcases one of their most dramatic and sought-after volcanic glaze formulations. The surface is covered with dense, cratered “lava” texturing—an effect achieved through meticulously controlled glaze chemistry and high-temperature firing. The result is a tactile, moon-like surface that shifts subtly between charcoal black and deep graphite tones depending on the light.
