ABOUT PRODUCTID 16142
This decorative glass bowl, attributed to František Zemek for the Czech glassworks Sklarna Mstišov from the 1960s, epitomizes mature Bohemian art glass within the mid-century modern tradition. The piece reveals a distinctive, freeform organic silhouette, accentuated by a dramatically undulating wide rim and an assertive, thick-walled base. Its composition, crafted from crystal-clear glass infused with swirling accents of vivid green, deep cobalt, and amber yellow, reflects Zemek’s characteristic flair for color play and optical depth. The hand-blown, thick-walled construction is seamless and exhibits no visible joints, with a glossy, near-mirror finish that celebrates the richness of the material. The bowl measures 26 × 26 × 9 cm. Exceptionally preserved, it displays no significant traces of use or visible damage. This object speaks of an era when artistic experimentation was a pathway to reimagining the ordinary. Its organic shape—flowing, undulating, and thick with layered color—evokes the impression of a rippling river or a fleeting reflection of light on water. The bowl captures the spirit of 1960s
