The decorative bowl from the Tulip collection, produced in 1957 by the Czechoslovakian Hermanova Hut glassworks, exemplifies mid-century modern pressed glass design. Crafted from transparent, heavy glass with a distinctly icy hue, it displays high clarity and a highly reflective, glossy surface that amplifies the play of light. The dynamic pattern, inspired by tulip petals, consists of elongated, pointed segments radiating from the base to the scalloped rim. The solid, flared base, also adorned with faceted petal motifs, ensures both stability and visual fluidity. The glass features a smooth, polished texture with crisp edges and deep reliefs, demonstrating mold precision and attention to detail. The bowl is free from any signs of wear, chips, or cracks—preserved in excellent condition.This bowl resonates with the optimism of the mid-20th century: its cool, crystalline glass evokes a spirit of modernity and fascination with nature, expressed through geometric divisions inspired by the tulip. Light refracted across the sharp edges seems to narrate the story of craftsmanship and innovation that defined objects both practical and decorative. It stands as a subtle reminder of the design courage and material sophistication achieved by Czechoslovak glassworks in the 1950s.The Tulip collection bowl can serve as a luminous centerpiece on a living room table, where its transparency and play of light accentuate a minimalist mid-century modern interior or eclectic compositions with ceramics and natural wood. It may be paired with a low walnut sideboard, simple geometric candlesticks, or adorned with single cut flowers or decorative fruits, drawing attention to the sculptural form and brilliance of the glass.
