ABOUT PRODUCTID 14045
This Art Deco vase, designed by Josef Hoffmann for the renowned Moser manufactory in Czechoslovakia, dates back to the 1930s. Crafted entirely from high-quality transparent alexandrite crystal, the object features a subtle, cool aquamarine hue, with a body accentuated by strongly geometric architecture and intricately polished facets. Repetitive, rhythmic ridges and pronounced rings define the vase’s decisively harmonious form—the top widens with sharply chamfered edges, the center narrows, and the piece broadens again at a massive, faceted base. There are no additional decorations or applications—the design relies solely on the purity of crystal and the inherent colour of glass. The vase exhibits no visible seams or joints, having been masterfully formed from a single piece of crystal; the surface is impeccably smooth and glossy throughout. Its very good condition, with only minimal, age-appropriate marks, attests to careful stewardship and its true antique provenance.Though contained within the discipline of lines and proportions so distinctive to the interwar period, this vase resonates with the era when everyday objects could become works of art. Art Deco here is articulated in every edge—the material transforms into light, and the illumination into a prismatic narrative of luxury understood as silence and perfection. The vase whispers echoes of modernism and architectural clarity, while the subtle play of glass hints at Viennese sophistication and the Middle European decorative tradition.The vase may be placed on a sideboard, table, or within a glazed display case—ideally matched with geometric ceramics, chromed accessories, or glassware from the same era. Its refined simplicity allows it to be combined equally well with classic or Modernist decor, making it a centrepiece in collector's interiors, Art Deco-inspired spaces, or minimalist arrangements,
