ABOUT PRODUCTID 19513
The 'Bączek' bottle, designed by Zbigniew Horbowy in 1970s Poland, is crafted from solid-colored glass. Its silhouette, emblematic of the era, features a generously rounded body that seamlessly transitions into a slender, extended neck. The glass is distinguished by a smooth color gradient—from deep burnt orange at the base to a vibrant yellow around the rim. The surface is glossy and impeccably smooth, with no decorative relief or texture, in keeping with the traditions of mid-century hand-blown glassware. Balance and simplicity define its proportions, while the absence of applied ornamentation amplifies the purity of form. The vessel exhibits no visible chips, defects, or restoration, and is in very good vintage condition.This bottle echoes the spirit of late Polish modernism, when composers of everyday objects experimented with pure color and sculptural line. As light passes through the swelling form, the gradient intensifies, bringing to mind the quiet persistence of a flame preserved within glass. Its organic profile channels Horbowy’s ongoing dialogue between geometry and the poetic qualities of nature—a hallmark of 1970s Polish design where function met refined artistry.In a mid-century modern setting, the 'Bączek' bottle would work well as a stand-alone focal point on a low console or among books and ceramics on a wooden shelf. It can be paired with textured upholstery or a neutral wall palette to accentuate the interplay of color on glass. The minimalist shape lends itself to combinations with modern rounded furniture or matte-finished metals, highlighting both its warm color spectrum and its roots in the era of experimentation that defined Polish studio glass.
