ABOUT PRODUCTID 14766
The large 'Starfish' centerpiece bowl, produced in the 1970s by the HSG Ząbkowice Glassworks in Poland, exemplifies pressed glass design with distinct modernist features. Crafted from deep cobalt blue glass, the bowl displays a strong saturation of color and a pronounced gleam that highlights the glass's clarity. Its organically sculpted shape, inspired by a starfish, is defined by five irregularly radiating arms emanating from a rounded, gently tapered core. The pressing technique introduces subtle variations in glass thickness, particularly along the arms, amplifying the unique interplay of light across its fully transparent body. Both interior and exterior surfaces are smooth to the touch, while the softly contoured edges reveal small undulations characteristic of hand-finished glass. The bowl is preserved in excellent condition with no visible signs of wear, chipping, or scratching, underscoring its authentic vintage character.
The 'Starfish' evokes the spirit of an era in which color and form signaled an embrace of modern design – a time when Polish homes welcomed bold
