ABOUT PRODUCTID 13686
This Art Deco vase, designed by Josef Hoffmann and produced by the renowned Moser glassworks in 1930s Czechoslovakia, epitomizes the modernist geometry of its era. Its monolithic form, crafted from thick cut crystal, is built up from tiered horizontal bands and faceted planes—calling to mind the architectural lines of the streamline style. The glass itself is transparent with a warm golden-yellow hue, deepening in intensity wherever the vessel thickens. Every surface is polished to a luminous gloss, while the seamless construction—free of handles or junctions—gives a strikingly modern impression. The masterful cutting of the crystal imparts a pleasing weight and a perfectly smooth, cool touch. The vase is in very good overall condition, with no chips, cracks, or color loss; only understated traces of use, as is typical for its period.The vase narrates an era when ornamentation yielded to disciplined form, and luxury resided in precision and play of light. Beneath the cool clarity of crystal, a subtle conversation unfolds: golden reflections at the edges give way to a gentle haze, and each segment echoes the modernist ambitions of the interwar years. Its sleek ringed profile and bold silhouette encapsulate the world of fashionable European interiors of the 1930s, where each piece bore witness both to functional refinement and an optimistic vision of progress.Such a statement piece benefits from a central, visible placement—atop a walnut sideboard or a glass console, where incoming light will accentuate the thickness and warmth of the crystal. It can be set beside upholstered Art Deco furniture,
