The 'Ćwieki' vase, produced by HSG Ząbkowice in Poland during the 1970s, exemplifies the modernist approach to utilitarian glassware, where precise form and decorative texture meet functional intent. Crafted from thick, pressed rosaline glass in a pale pink hue with subtle amber-peach undertones, the vase features a tall, slightly tapering cylindrical silhouette and a striking, faceted relief pattern. Regular hexagons and diamonds form a rhythmic, three-dimensional surface that catches and reflects light across its glossy exterior. The multi-sided rim and base emphasize the geometric character typical of Eastern European modernism of the era. While the interior remains smooth, the exterior boasts a tactile, pronounced texture. The vase is free of visible damage, chips, or cracks, and remains in very good vintage condition, with no signs of restoration or repair.The vase’s form tells the story of a decade when Polish glass became a field for experiments in geometry and light. Its pastel coloring and faceted surface evoke the optimism of the 1970s, when utilitarian objects embraced bold, decorative accents. The rosaline glass diffuses light softly, casting a warm, nostalgic glow, while the polygonal rim suggests a willingness to push beyond traditional forms—as if the vase itself whispers of daring designs and the search for beauty in the everyday.It can be paired with other glassware from the same period or displayed as a standalone accent on an oak sideboard, where its color and texture create contrast with matte wood. The vase suits both minimalist and eclectic interiors; its pastel shade combines well with ceramics in muted tones or brass-finished metal accessories. Placed in daylight within a living room, it will highlight a modernist arrangement, revealing a play of reflections across its faceted surface.
