ABOUT PRODUCTID 19397
The 'Glut' vase embodies the sculptural ambition of pressed glassware manufactured by HSG Ząbkowice in Poland during the 1970s. Its vertically oriented, substantial body is cast in dense, deep olive green glass, maintaining a uniform hue that subtly shifts in saturation depending on thickness. The broad, three-lobed base fluidly transitions into a slender neck that rises with elegance, culminating in a subtly tapering rim. A glossy, polished surface accentuates the vase's organic profile, inviting light to interact delicately with the semi-transparent mass. There are no decorative accents or color variations—the piece relies on the raw strength and visual complexity inherent to pressed glass, a hallmark of Ząbkowice's technique at the time. There is no evidence of wear, damage, or discoloration; all edges appear original and finished at the factory. The vase remains in excellent, collector-grade condition.This glasswork speaks in the voice of an era when Polish glassworks flirted with artistic freedom amid the constraints of 1970s industrial reality. The vase's form balances the weight and forthrightness of brutalism with a soft, flowing silhouette reminiscent of a solidified drop. Its olive green shade subtly mutes light but showcases the interplay of thickness and fluid profile, echoing the experimental ethos of Ząbkowice’s glass laboratories half a century ago.The vase functions well as a focal object atop a vintage oak sideboard or console from the 1960s. It can be paired with concrete decorative elements or pale marble surfaces, highlighting the natural dialogue between materials. In mid-century modern or collector's interiors, it may serve as a sculptural counterpoint amid minimalist decor or muted
