This large vase, designed by František Pečený and produced by Heřmanova Huť in Czechoslovakia in 1977, demonstrates the refined craft of late 1970s glassmaking. The vessel is hand-crafted from robust soda glass, measuring 20 cm in height and 12 cm in diameter; the walls are notably thick, imparting both visual and physical stability. Its transparent, cool-toned material subtly refracts ambient light, while deeply pressed, swirling organic motifs wrap around the entire surface, evoking a sense of movement and rhythm. The undulating, irregular rim—shaped by hand—reinforces the individual, artisanal touch of each piece, setting it apart from mass-produced glassware. The recurring decorative pattern produces a sculptural, optical effect that is characteristic of Czechoslovak 1970s modernism, with clear references to natural forms and textures. The vase is preserved in very good condition with no chips, cracks, or clouding—in short, a clean, authentic example of its era.
The vase speaks in the idiom of the 1970s, when organic modernism entered everyday design. Its form reveals both the dynamism and restraint of hand-shaped glass—deep impressions gently traversing the transparent body, conjuring images of flowing water or plant stems. The irregular top edge celebrates creative spontaneity, offering a counterpoint to the era’s technical precision. Rather than mimic perfect uniform
