ABOUT PRODUCTID 20238
This goblet, designed by Zbigniew Horbowy for Huta Szkła 'Sudety' in 1971, embodies the spirit of Polish artistic glass from the 1970s. Made of soda glass colored in the mass, it features a fluid gradient: from a warm, translucent yellow in the bowl to a cool, semi-opaque blue in the slender stem and base. The smooth, glossy surface highlights the purity of form and the modernist character of the design. The goblet’s proportions are elongated, with a minimalist silhouette and subtle rounded transitions that reflect the precision of handcraftsmanship. It measures 26 cm in height and 6 cm in diameter. The goblet is preserved in very good condition, with no chips, cracks, or traces of use—retaining its original sheen and coloration.In this form, the voice of Polish modernism resonates: Horbowy’s glass speaks of the courage to experiment and the search for harmony in color and proportion. The seamless gradient evokes the clarity of dawn—yellow melting into blue like a morning sky over the Sudetes. Every detail reflects a pursuit of purity and clarity—this is a goblet that does not require embellishment to express its individual character.The goblet can be paired with other 1970s glassware or contemporary ceramics in muted tones to accentuate its ombré effect. It works well as a solo accent on a shelf or console within a modernist-inspired interior, or in more eclectic arrangements where it contrasts with raw wood or matte metal. It is worth combining with minimalist forms or vessels of geometric lines to bring out its lightness and visual freshness.
