This Art Deco vase, designed by Josef Hoffmann and manufactured by Moser in Karlovy Vary, Czechoslovakia, in the 1930s, exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of Central European decorative arts. The vessel is crafted entirely from solid, faceted crystal in a subtle smoky grey tone, marked by a cool, clear transparency. Its glossy surface highlights the architectural rhythm of the piece, created by the precise segmentation of the body into three horizontal bands with deeply beveled, geometric edges. The silhouette transitions from a wide, octagonal mouth to a slightly tapered base—emphasizing the vertical monumentality so typical of the 1930s.

The vase is signed and shows no visible signs of use, damage, or restoration; it is preserved in very good condition, free from chips, scratches, or discoloration.The vase echoes the narrative of Central European modernism, where material opulence was balanced by the rigor of geometric order. Its tiered, crystalline form seems to whisper of the energetic 1930s, when architecture and the decorative arts intertwined to celebrate both function and sensuous clarity. Masterful craftsmanship allows it to capture and direct light, staging an almost theatrical interplay of reflections—evoking the refined salons and urban interiors of the interwar
