ABOUT PRODUCTID 1911
This centerpiece bowl designed by Jozef Hospodka for the renowned Czech glassworks Chribska, circa 1960, is a vivid example of modernist art glass from the era. Crafted from multicolored, hand-formed glass, the piece features a dynamic, floral-inspired silhouette: six elongated, gracefully upward-curving arms radiate from a solid, ground base. The dominant cool blue at the center fades fluidly into transparent glass, creating a striking gradient and a sense of sculptural depth. The highly polished surface is smooth and luminous, with the artist’s signature on the underside confirming authenticity. The bowl measures 15.5 cm in height and 32 cm in diameter. Preserved in excellent condition, it shows no traces of wear, damage, or restoration. This bowl reflects the voice of 1960s Czech modernism: artistic spontaneity balanced by meticulous craftsmanship. Its organic lines evoke a suspended floral gesture, while the transition from blue to crystal-clear glass resembles the play of sunlight on a tranquil lake. The piece continues to tell a story of seeking beauty in everyday life—a pursuit of harmony in form and light. The bowl can be displayed as a focal point on a dining table or low sideboard, where it pairs well with other mid-century pieces such as art glass vases, ceramics, or minimalist accessories. In light-filled, modernist interiors, it will reinforce a sense of visual lightness, yet it also suits eclectic, collector’s spaces, where its contrast with natural wood or metal accents becomes particularly engaging.
