ABOUT PRODUCTID 38353
Designed by Jozef Hospodka for the Chribska glassworks in Czechoslovakia around 1960, this decorative bowl is a striking example of Czech art glass from the mid-century modern era. Hand-formed from multicolored glass, the bowl features a dominant warm, translucent yellow with subtle greenish undertones and a non-uniform coloration that transitions from a saturated center to pale, almost clear edges. The glossy, mirror-like surface accentuates the interplay of light and color. Its organic, asymmetrical form, marked by swirling, sculptural ridges and a spiral motif reminiscent of a whirlpool or flower petals, is emblematic of Hospodka’s expressive style. The glass is thick and robust, with a smooth, carefully finished flat base. The piece is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damage or restoration and only minimal age-consistent wear.This bowl reflects the spirit of the 1960s, a time when Czech art glass boldly experimented with color, material, and form. The gently undulating lines tell a story of searching for harmony between nature and modernity: light dances across the mirrored surface, while the swirling ridges evoke the spontaneous gesture of the artist. In its dynamic form, the bowl captures the energy of an era both daring and refined in detail.The Hospodka bowl can serve as a centerpiece on a dining or coffee table, where its colors and distinctive shape create a strong visual accent. It could be paired with other glass accessories inspired by the 1960s or with minimalist white porcelain to highlight its artistic character.
