ABOUT PRODUCTID 36478
The 'Alicja' bottle is a design by Zbigniew Horbowy, produced by the Sudety Glassworks in Szczytna Śląska in the 1970s—an icon of Polish modernist glassware. Made of soda-lime glass, colored in the mass, it features a vibrant, saturated orange hue that subtly transitions to a lighter, almost yellowish-orange at the neck. The surface is highly glossy, smooth, and mirror-like, with no visible seams or joints. The straight, cylindrical neck provides a balanced counterpoint to the substantial, oval body, resulting in harmonious proportions characteristic of the 1970s. The vase is devoid of decorative patterns—its strength lies in the purity of form and mastery of color. The piece is preserved in very good condition, with no chips, cracks, or signs of use.This 'Alicja' bottle tells the story of Polish modernism, a time when simplicity, functionality, and bold color became the language of new design ideas. The transparent orange glass evokes the energy of a decade that valued experimentation with color and light. Its unadorned form speaks in the idiom of the 1970s, when design was meant to be both accessible and assertive, with a fearless approach to color as a hallmark of the era. The vase carries echoes of glassmaking precision and the spirit of modernity, unburdened by ornament.It can be combined with other glass pieces from the period to create a collection of varied shapes and colors,
