Hand-blown in Czechoslovakia at the renowned Harrachov glassworks during the 1970s, this ice glass vase exemplifies the era’s artisanal mastery. Crafted from thick, clear crystal glass, its surface is defined by a dramatic crackle pattern reminiscent of fractured ice—an effect that gives the piece both a strong tactile presence and visual depth. An asymmetrically applied cobalt blue glass ribbon encircles the vase’s lower midsection, creating a striking chromatic accent against the cool, transparent body. The form is organic and subtly irregular, with a bulbous base narrowing towards a slender neck and culminating in a broad, undulating rim. High-gloss finishing throughout emphasizes the transparency and enhances the vibrancy of the surface textures. The artisan’s hand is evident in subtle irregularities and organic transitions; all decorative elements, including the blue application and ice craquelure, remain authentic and original. The vase is preserved in excellent condition, with no visible signs of use or restoration.
Emanating from the spirit of 1970s Czech glasswork, this vase echoes an era of creative freedom and confident experimentation. The cobalt blue ribbon tells of designers unafraid to combine precise craftsmanship with expressive, spontaneous detail. Light dances across the lustrous, ice-like surface, evoking the feeling of thawing winter,
