ABOUT PRODUCTID 17985
This Holmegaard vase, designed by Per Lütken, stands as a quintessential example of Danish mid-century modernism from the 1950s. Its construction features a slender, cylindrical form crafted from thick, transparent glass with a delicate cool blue tint. The color is most saturated at the substantial base, gradually fading to near transparency at the upper section, creating a subtle gradient effect. The high-gloss finish lends a mirror-like, polished surface that emphasizes the purity of both the glass and the silhouette. With pronounced height (22.5 cm) and a modest diameter of 6.5 cm, the proportions feel balanced and poised. The seamless construction and moderately thick walls reflect the exceptional craftsmanship of Danish glassmaking at that era. The vase remains in its original vintage condition, with minor traces of use such as faint scratches and small chips that are typical for its age.The vase expresses the calm voice of Danish modernism—glass here speaks in tones of precision, simplicity, and quiet harmony. Its transparent blue recalls the gentle haze of a morning sky, while the weighted base grounds the composition with almost sculptural gravitas. The unadorned, pure form exemplifies Per Lütken's pursuit of elegance through restraint and a mastery of material, revealing a presence that does not rely on embellishments or excess.This piece could be displayed atop an oak console, where it would play
