ABOUT PRODUCTID 19526
This tall envelope-shaped vase, produced by Ząbkowice glassworks in Poland during the 1970s, is crafted from translucent azure blue pressed soda glass. The form—a slender, elongated silhouette with a subtle taper at the base and seamless construction—reflects the refined lines and restrained decoration typical of mid-century modern design. A geometric relief of regular rectangular and oval motifs encircles the body, creating visual rhythm and surface dynamism without requiring additional embellishment. The thick base ensures stability, the glossy surface interacts strikingly with light, and the rim—rounded, with subtly irregular, jagged edges—accentuates its artisanal character. There are no handles or accents to interrupt the purity of shape. The vase is preserved in very good condition, showing no chips, cracks, or signs of wear; both the depth of color and lustre remain intact.The vase channels the authentic spirit of the 1970s, evoking the era when Polish glassware was renowned for its bold use of color and experimental textures. The raised motifs resemble the geometry of urban lights, refracting and reflecting light in multiple directions—as if the vase were narrating the story of the interplay between craft and modernity in the domestic world of its time. The vivid blue glass enlivens its surroundings, echoing the optimism and technological exuberance that characterized the postwar decades.This vase can be paired with both modern and classical objects—it works well atop a walnut console, highlighting the wood’s grain, or on a minimalist metal shelf, complementing an industrial accent. Its azure tone is accentuated beside neutral-toned glass or ceramics, making the most of its color’s intensity. It may be displayed with a single decorative branch or stand alone as an
