ABOUT PRODUCTID 13967
This vase, designed by Josef Hospodka for the Chribska glassworks in 1960s Czechoslovakia, embodies the sculptural spirit of mid-century modern glassmaking. Its form is organic and asymmetric, featuring dynamic, undulating contours with dramatically raised scalloped edges that lend the vessel an almost floral, decorative character. The glass is notably thick and highly polished to a luminous, mirror-like shine. The color transitions—rich cranberry red at the top, melding into deep purple, flowing down to a clear, transparent base finished with a subtle blue accent—highlight the mastery of hand-blown glass techniques, with no visible seams or joins. The weight and solidity of the vessel ensure stability, while its glossy surface amplifies reflections and intensifies color shifts depending on the angle of the light. The piece is preserved in very good condition, showing no chips, cracks, scratches, or discolorations—its clarity and gloss remain fully intact.The shape of this vase evokes the optimistic spirit of 1960s Czechoslovakia, a period marked by creative experimentation and a search for new artistic languages in material culture. The sculptural silhouette and fluid, shifting colors convey the sense that glass could compete with sculpture and painting as a vehicle for personal expression. Each rotation of the piece causes its palette to interact with the light, as if freezing a motion of color—a living accent in everyday interiors, carrying the bold, inventive energy of its era.The vase is best displayed atop a sideboard or console in the living room, where ambient or directional light will draw out its nuanced hues and textures.
