This artistic glass bowl, designed by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz in Kraków in 1972, exemplifies the experimental spirit of Polish glassmaking in the 1970s. Crafted from uniformly turquoise-colored glass, the bowl displays a harmonious, rounded form with a thick rim and nearly spherical body. Its base, undulating and organic in outline, evokes the delicate shape of flower petals and lends the piece a sculptural, playful character. The glossy surface is flawlessly smooth, reflecting light and intensifying the richness of the color and the purity of the glass. Seamless transitions between the bowl and the base demonstrate precise craftsmanship. The overall condition is very good, with no chips, cracks, or visible signs of wear; the glossy finish remains intact and unmarred.This piece breathes the spirit of 1970s modernism, expressing itself through bold color and simplicity of line. The turquoise glass speaks in the voice of the era’s innovators—fresh, open, and unafraid to search for new forms. The organic, petal-like base opens a dialogue between geometry and nature, while the smooth surface captures light like the surface of a lake on a summer’s day. More than a decorative accent, the bowl tells a story of Polish postwar design’s pursuit of modernity and lightness.The bowl can be displayed solo on a low console or classic light-wood table, where its color and form become the focal point of the arrangement. It may also be paired with other pieces of artistic glass—especially in shades of white, grey, or amber—to highlight color contrasts and depth. Mid-century modern, minimalist, or eclectic collector’s interiors will allow it to resonate—serving equally as
