ABOUT PRODUCTID 13951
The glass 'Hat' vase from HSG Tarnowiec is an example of 1970s Polish craftsmanship, embodying the aesthetic of mid-century modern studio glass design. Crafted from substantial, hand-formed glass, it features a warm, translucent amber hue that softly gradients into a darker, smoky brown towards its slightly squared, weighted base. The wide, asymmetrically flared rim creates an undulating line reminiscent of a hat's brim, smoothly merging into the body’s organic silhouette. The glossy, smooth surface captures and reflects light, enhancing its sculptural presence, while subtle air bubbles visible within the glass attest to its mouth-blown origin. The vase is preserved in very good condition—no noticeable chips or cracks, with only small scratches and discreet signs of age typical for its era.This vase speaks with the voice of 1970s Polish modernism: balancing utility with a distinctly artistic flair. The boldly flared rim conveys a sense of playful freedom, while the ombre coloring evokes the natural gradations of amber and the play of light on glass. As much a sculpture as a vessel, it tells the story of an era when Polish studio glass embraced organic forms and highlighted the fluidity of the medium. Minor bubbles and texture irregularities serve as a silent signature of the glassmaker’s hand.In an interior, this vase could be paired with simple-lined furniture from the 1960s and 70s—such as teak sideboards or coffee tables—where its warm golden tones will complement wood grains. It may also be striking set against a light windowsill or marble surface, either standing alone or holding a single, graphic-stemmed branch. For an eclectic collector’s space, it can be grouped with ceramics or Murano glass to
