Details:
The vase is not marked with a cross or star in addition to the cat mark of the studio Hohlt, which Albrecht Hohlt often used to mark his pieces in order to clearly identify them as being made by him, in distinction to pieces made by his father Otto Hohlt or his brother Görge Hohlt.

However, the glaze of this vase, with its delicate pink areas, has such an experimental character that it can be assumed that it was made by Albrecht Hohlt. The feel of the glaze, which has a plastic-like quality, is also reminiscent of glazes that can be found on pieces marked by Albrecht Hohlt as his own.
