This glass fish figurine, crafted in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s, embodies the essence of mid-century modern design—clean lines, balanced proportions, and a focus on material artistry. The elongated 41 cm body is formed from light blue glass with a mirror-like, iridescent finish, allowing light to reflect fluidly across its surface and emphasizing the streamlined silhouette. The fins and tail, made from slightly darker, transparent blue glass, feature pronounced ribbed textures that add movement and visual depth. The eyes are small, rounded, and raised, crafted from matching blue glass. All elements are seamlessly joined, with no visible adhesives or fasteners, testifying to precise craftsmanship. The piece is preserved in excellent condition, showing no chips, cracks, or signs of wear, and retains its original glossy surface. This figurine carries the spirit of 1960s Czechoslovak glass artistry—a period marked by innovation in form and a fascination with the interplay of light and color. The fish appears to glide in motion, its body shimmering with shades of blue, evoking tranquil water and a deep appreciation for organic motifs. The subtle mirror effect animates the surface, revealing new hues and reflections from every angle, creating an ambience of freshness and lightness that resonates with the optimistic modernism of its era. Placed in a living room, the piece could occupy a central spot on a low sideboard or marble surface, where the glass would interact beautifully with ambient light. It may be combined with minimalist ceramics or single pastel accents to highlight its mid-century heritage. The figurine would work well in mid-century modern interiors, but also in pared-back contemporary spaces, where it would serve as a refined, decorative accent without overwhelming the setting.
