This decorative art glass bowl, attributed to Miroslav Klinger for the renowned Czech glassworks Železný Brod and produced in the 1960s, exemplifies the mature phase of organic modernism in European studio glass. Hand-blown and free of visible seams, the bowl demonstrates the artisanal skill associated with Czech glassmaking of this era. The form is soft and amorphous—a smooth, undulating surface offset by a perceptibly thick glass mass. Its coloration centers on a warm, translucent yellow: the hue is most saturated at the base, gradually lightening to near-clarity at the rim. The absence of decorative motifs emphasizes the material's purity and the clarity of the vessel's organic silhouette. The blowing technique employed here results in a sculptural quality paired with the refined restraint of mid-century Czech art glass. Preserved in excellent condition for its age, the bowl shows no cracks, chips, or visible signs of wear. This bowl carries the ambiance of the 1960s European modernism: in its flowing lines, one senses the lightness of biomorphic inspiration and the era’s postwar quest for simplicity. The way light travels through the glass evokes memories of sunny afternoons or the soft interplay of shadows across a living room table—
