ABOUT PRODUCTID 20333
This glass form, designed by Miloslav Klinger in the 1970s for the Železný Brod glassworks in Czechoslovakia, serves as either an ashtray or a decorative bowl. Crafted from thick, heavy glass, it features a vibrant, translucent pink hue with a cool undertone. The organic, freeform silhouette—typical of Czech mid-century modern design—emphasizes fluid, asymmetrical curves and soft contours. The surface is highly polished, mirror-like, and free from visible scratches or chips, while the entire piece is monolithic with no visible seams or joints. The base is smoothly finished and unsigned. There are no additional patterns or accents; the color is uniform throughout, with subtle shifts in tone resulting from varying glass thicknesses. The form remains in excellent condition, showing no signs of wear.This piece resonates with the spirit of the 1970s, when Czech designers like Klinger experimented boldly with color and form to express a new aesthetic freedom. Its soft lines and saturated pink evoke the vibrant energy of the era—a time when everyday objects became sculptural, and light played across material in almost theatrical ways. The pink glass reflects onto its surroundings, creating a sense of dynamic, living presence, as if the piece still holds the breath of its time.The bowl can be used as a striking centerpiece on a low coffee table in a living room, or as a decorative accent atop a sideboard in interiors inspired by mid-century modern style. It pairs well with other colored glass objects or ceramics with simple lines, as well as light woods and neutral textiles that highlight the intensity of the pink. In eclectic spaces, it may be combined with period graphics or metallic accessories to emphasize its collectible status and sculptural impact.
