This bottle vase, designed by Zbigniew Horbowy for Huta Szkła 'Sudety' in 1971, is a quintessential example of Polish mid-century modern glass art. Crafted from mass-colored soda-lime glass, it exhibits a warm amber gradient—shifting from a lighter, golden hue at the top to a deep, almost brown tone at the base. The slender neck, gently flared rim, and broad, square base with rounded corners define its distinctly minimalist silhouette (35 cm high, 10 × 10 cm at the base). The highly polished, glossy surface enhances the interplay of light across the smooth texture, highlighting the harmonious proportions and subtle color transitions. This vase is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damage or signs of wear.The vase echoes the spirit of Polish design from the 1970s, where functionality merges with refined form. Its amber color conveys the warmth of afternoon sunlight, and the fluid color transitions reflect the experimental and creative drive of the era. The tall, elongated shape speaks to the modernist pursuit of harmony and clarity—a piece that quietly defines a space, inviting light to play within its form.It can be paired with minimalist mid-century furniture or within a contemporary, neutral interior, where its amber hue will bring warmth to the surrounding decor. The vase works well as a solo accent on an oak sideboard or in a curated group of glass objects in contrasting tones. It is worth combining with natural textiles or dark fabrics, which will emphasize the sheen of the glass and balance its transparency, making it at home in collector’s or eclectic living room arrangements.
