ABOUT PRODUCTID 14000
The "Aniołek" vase, designed by Stefan Sadowski in the 1970s for Huta Sudety, exemplifies modernist Polish glassmaking from that era. Its saturated, warm orange hue and high-gloss finish allow the hand-blown glass surface to reflect light vividly. The vessel features a sculptural, hourglass silhouette, gently tapering at the waist, with a flared rim and a substantial, rounded base for stability. The exterior is completely monochromatic, without decorative pattern or embellishment, drawing attention to the minimalist contours and craftsmanship. The seamless connections between the vase's segments indicate a high-quality manufacturing process. The vase displays subtle signs of wear and patina characteristic of its age, with a single fine crack visible only under direct light and at close range; this does not detract from its overall structure.Its restrained form and vibrant color conjure the spirit of the 1970s—a time when Polish glass design embraced modern trends and infused everyday objects with a sense of artistic purpose. The vase speaks of an era seeking light and color as a counterpoint to daily routine, while Stefan Sadowski’s work stands out for its mid-century references and sculpted, organic lines. In its purity, the piece articulates a quiet dialogue between usability and autonomous, expressive design.The vase may be displayed on a low sideboard or console, functioning as a standalone accent—either with a single stem or left empty to highlight its bold form and color. It would pair well with light wood furnishings, against a white or pastel backdrop, and alongside minimalist ceramics. Both mid-century modern interiors and collector-oriented vintage settings would showcase its retro attitude and celebrate the legacy of Polish art glass.
