ABOUT PRODUCTID 16749
This amphora-shaped vase, designed by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz in 1972 at the Glass Institute Studio in Kraków, is crafted from mass-colored artistic glass in a warm, creamy beige with subtle yellow undertones. The surface is flawlessly smooth and finished to a high gloss, allowing light to reflect softly across its harmonious, flowing contours. The vessel is distinguished by a single, slender handle made of translucent beige glass, gracefully arching from the shoulder to the slightly flared mouth and ending in a refined, spiral detail at its base. Its proportions—rounded body and elongated neck—emphasize a restrained elegance that bridges classical amphora inspiration with the minimalist modernism of 1970s Polish design. The condition is pristine, with no signs of use, chips, cracks, or restoration. This vase tells the story of Polish studio glass modernism: its pale surface evokes the diffused glow of stage lighting from the 1970s, while the sleek, considered lines show reverence for both material and form. The delicate spiral handle engages in a subtle dialogue with antiquity, blending craftsmanship and innovation. In daylight, the glass catch light and the amphora's body quietly radiates a soft, warm glow—silent, yet imbued with the contemplative grandeur typical of its era. It can be placed on a coffee table or console in a minimalist living room, especially amid light-colored surfaces
