At one time, items with this type of lava decoration were
attributed to Roth, but then a friend got a Ruscha catalog, and
there were the shapes. Oops

Shape 313 by Kurt Tschörner for Ruscha was introduced in
1954 and became one of the most successful forms ever made. Word
is that at least 50 different glaze treatments exist, and with
many of these types, each vase is going to come out a bit different
even in the same treatment. You could build a collection just
on this shape. Finding the shape is fairly easy if you know where
to look, but finding any specific glaze is a bit maddening (and
isn't that what we love?).
