ABOUT PRODUCTID 13663
This vase, designed by Josef Hospodka and crafted in Czechoslovakia in the 1960s, embodies the finest qualities of mid-century modern sculptural glass. The organic, asymmetric silhouette with undulating, wavy edges is hand-shaped from thick, polished glass with a glossy, mirror-like surface. The color transitions—from warm amber through deep cobalt and violet accents to a clear, stable base—create a striking visual dynamism that reinforces the sense of fluidity. The substantial weight ensures stability, while intentional variations in glass thickness reveal a conscious artistic effect, characteristic of Czech glassmaking from this era. Free from any joints or seams, the surface remains smooth and visually compelling from every angle. Preserved in very good condition, the vase shows no chips, cracks, or scratches, standing as an authentic original of its time.This vase encapsulates the voice of Czech modernism, where artistic freedom and a quest for new forms permeated even functional, everyday objects. Its irregular line and mineral-infused, luminous colors suggest the play of light within glass—a reflection of the experimentation, vibrancy, and optimism of the 1960s. Each touch of its cool surface and glance at its reflective sheen offers the sense of time momentarily paused within this organic artefact, inviting the viewer to discover shifting colors and highlights anew each day.The vase is well suited for placement on a sideboard, console, or shelf in the
