Designed in 1972 by Oswald Kleudgen, the 'Amsterdam' relief decor, so named for its resemblance to stacks of tulip bulbs, is also commonly known as the 'Onion' decor, and is one of the most popular ever produced by Scheurich Keramik.  It was available in a number of sizes and colorways, as well as color combinations, including this orangy-red and brown version that highlights the pattern perfectly.

OSWALD KLEUDGEN was a classmate and close friend of Heinz Siery, the prolific form designer who would ultimately exert huge influence over the style of West German ceramics through his work at several of the best companies of that time.  Kleudgen was a top-notch painter and decorator who had collaborated with Siery at Fohr Keramik, and then later at Scheurich when they both went to work there in 1955.  Kleudgen would stay at Scheurich even when Heinz left in 1959 to go to work for Carstens.  He became the single most important designer of glazes and decors at Scheurich and worked for them until his retirement.

SCHEURICH had its origins in a joint venture launched in 1928 by Alois Scheurich 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 producing household ceramics of their own, selling them under the name Scheurich & Greulich.  In 1954 Alois founded SCHEURICH to continue the production on his own.

The celebrated designer Heinz Siery was recruited the following year.  He developed production techniques for SCHEURICH as well as designs.  The overarching manufacturing strategy was to produce a wide array of simple forms that could be decorated in a great variety of glazes.  This resulted in a range of pieces that was both extensive and economically adaptable.  The approach proved altogether successful; through the 1980s SCHEURICH produced more pottery than any other German manufacturer.  Much of it was for export.

The earliest SCHEURICH pieces sport discrete colors and simple geometric patterns.  In the late 1960s and the '70s, its glazes were characterized by brown-and-green color schemes, sometimes accented with more vibrant hues—however, some décors featured the bold lava and volcanic finishes that are so admired today.  Molded décors inspired by ancient cultures or patterns from nature were also represented.  By the late 1980s, shapes and color scales became plainer and the work less attractive.

Classic look, great feel and great price.
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Super comfy and casual, but classy enough that it can be worn out. I find this shirt extremely comfortable, it is a classic look and is very flattering. I wear a size 14 and the XL is loose but not baggy. It washes well, does not wrinkle if I get it out of the dryer and folded in appropriate time, and the material is a good weight for the cost of the shirt. I would likely buy again as this is a great summer staple.

Runs true to size and well made!
Color: Black, Size: Medium
I am very pleased with the size and cut of this top. I hesitated on sizing (at 5'1" and 105 lb) because I like a looser fit and am sometimes given different size recommendations. Many times the tops are too large and must be altered or simply passed on to thrift stores. This shirt in a medium is perfect in its fit, flows nicely. The neckline is not too low, but more like a shirt with a couple of top buttons unbuttoned- no gap. The sleeve length is good for me as my shoulders are a bit narrow. (I checked and no way to remove the stitches that hold the sleeve into a cuff. They are deeply embedded into this soft opaque fabric that has some stretch. (Even with the best of seam rippers and sharp eyesight!)I think the rolled cuff is cute! Top drapes well and is a great length for jeans or shorts- dressy casual wear, with its perfect fabric thickness. I really like the black color. I would not wear it with leggings because of the length, but jeggings are great with it. The little contrasting buttons are a nice touch. Great value buy.
