This 1970s ashtray, attributed to J. Rozinek from Novy Bor, Czechoslovakia, exemplifies the artistic glassmaking of its era. Crafted from thick, hand-formed glass, the piece features a smooth, mirror-like finish. Its body is clear, punctuated by three organically shaped recesses—each distinguished by a bold, saturated color: emerald green, cobalt blue, and ruby red. These hues blend subtly into the transparent base, imparting a jewel-like brilliance. The rounded, asymmetrical form and fluid lines reflect modernist and late mid-century influences. Measuring 4 cm in height and 15 cm in diameter, the ashtray is preserved in excellent condition, showing no visible signs of use, damage, or restoration.This ashtray echoes the story of glass from a period when color and form experimentation became the signature of Czech glassworks. Its organic lines and vibrant colors recall a time when glass was treated as an artistic medium—both utilitarian and decorative. The rich, luminous patches of color seem to pulse with light, as if capturing the spirited energy and creative risk-taking of the 1970s. Each vivid hue—green, blue, red—speaks to the richness of Czechoslovakian craftsmanship and the bold synthesis of tradition with modern experimentation.The ashtray can be paired with other glassware from the 1960s and 1970s, especially vases or bowls from Novy Bor or Škrdlovice, to form a collector’s composition on a coffee table or sideboard. It would suit interiors inspired by mid-century modern, eclectic collector settings, or minimalist spaces where a single glass object becomes a focal point. For best effect, it can
