A tall Ruscha Keramik 'Korfu" vase in red and orange with hints of black.

RUSCHA KERAMIK launched in 1948 when Rudolf Schardt assumed the management of Klein & Schardt, his father Georg's ceramics factory in the town of Rheinbach, located near Bonn in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.  (RUSCHA is a syllabic abbreviation of his name.)  The timing of the re-founding ensured that the company was in a good position to benefit from Germany's post-war growth boom.  RUSCHA KERAMIK became a leading manufacturer during the "golden age" of Western German ceramics and is credited with some of the era's key developments.  It produced some very successful and innovative forms and glazes, including the 'Vulcano' décor (Otto Gerharz, 1951)—which heralded the move towards thick, dripping fat-lava glazes—and the iconic no. 313 (Kurt Tschörner, 1954), probably the period's most famous shape.  Hanns Welling, Adele Bolz, Heinz Siery, and Cilli Wörsdörfer were among other notable designers to work for RUSCHA.

RUSCHA KERAMIK was celebrated for exquisite wall plates, plaques, and tiles—manufactured for both indoor and outdoor applications—as well as its high-quality vases.  Specimens from the 1970s will frequently exhibit remarkable lava and volcanic glazes.  When RUSCHA closed its factory in 1996, Scheurich acquired many of its designs and molds; distinctive silver RUSCHA labels were sometimes applied to the subsequent production.

Notes on identification:  White clay was used practically exclusively.  The rare examples made with red-brown clay are thought to date from periods when normal supply sources ran out.  Embossed and incised base-numbering was used for vessels.  If a vase was made in more than one size, a single digit indicating relative size followed the form number.  Low form numbers (< 100) were sometimes preceded by a letter.  Like a few other manufacturers RUSCHA KERAMIK occasionally recycled form numbers, a cause of distress for some collectors.  Pieces were never molded with "Germany" or "West Germany."

In rare instances, bases were hand-inscribed—less often, painted—with the name RUSCHA and a décor name (these tend to be earlier 1950s items).  Where stickers are found they always read "Ruscha Art."  Many items were not stickered.  Sometimes a retailer's label was applied.

Buy 2 sizes if you are interested.
I ordered this suit for an event, unfortunately was not able to wear it. The Vest was missing, it fit bigger than it should (over sized although I measured), and the black jacket came with a WHITE STAIN. The suit and vest were the main reason for my purchase. The material of the suit was comfortable and stretchable, pants fit well. The bow tie and pocket piece were great in color and detail, brand new.

Thick quality polo shirt, just maybe not for Golfing.
Color: Black/Blue, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Blue, Size: Medium
This shirt was a lot thicker than I imagined. It's built well and fits as intended, but as far as a golf shirt it is quite heavy, and I would feel as though it would cause overheating or sweating. Very thick shirt, possible better for colder golfing days and still look good. I enjoy the color and pattern. It is soft and comfortable, again just a little thinker than anticipated, not a quick dry material, but a fully cotton blend. Decent value for the money and would consider pitching others in the future but most likely not for golfing in general.
