ABOUT PRODUCTID 12467
This pressed glass service bell, produced by Kannegiesser in Czechoslovakia during the 1950s, exemplifies mid-century modern design sensibilities. The bell's clear body displays a subtly warm hue and a glossy, lustrous finish. Its surface is adorned with symmetrically positioned, raised oval and circular motifs, each encasing a glass cabochon in amethyst purple, amber yellow, or light blue. The handle, elongated and elegantly tapering to a rounded tip, complements the organic silhouette, while a glass clapper suspended on a chain inside remains visible through the transparent body. The construction balances a light, sculpture-like form with vivid color accents and geometric texture, fully representative of the period's decorative vocabulary. The bell survives in very good condition—there are no signs of cracks, chips, or repairs, and all original decorative features are intact.The bell's form echoes the vibrant spirit of postwar Czechoslovakia—a time when craft and industry seized upon color and tactile surfaces as emblems of playful optimism. Its glossy surface scatters light like moving water, with each colored cabochon resembling a polished pebble found at the riverside. A clear, musical chime from the interior glass element recalls moments of domestic ceremony or attentive pause—a refined gesture of daily life, quietly narrating the hope and inventiveness of the 1950s modern era.The bell may be placed on a living room shelf, alongside a collection of vintage glassware, or set atop a hallway console where its transparency is echoed by other glass, ceramic, or vintage decorative objects. It complements mid-century modern interiors and also fits within eclectic, collector-driven arrangements. Whether grouped with other colorfully
