ABOUT PRODUCTID 14011
This glass vase from the 1960s, designed by Josef Hospodka for Chribska glassworks in Czechoslovakia, embodies the sculptural vocabulary of mid-century modern design. Its organic, asymmetrical silhouette flows in dynamic, continuous lines, culminating in a distinctive three-lobed opening reminiscent of a flower’s calyx reaching upward. The highly polished, mirror-like surface accentuates the natural luminosity of the glass, while the color transitions—from cool green at the rim through a lighter center to a transparent, peachy-pink base—enhance the sense of fluidity and depth. Blown from a single piece of glass with no visible seams, the vase’s weighty base lends a sense of stability. Absent are decorative motifs or handles: the design focuses purely on form and masterful glassmaking. The piece is preserved in very good condition—free from chips, cracks, scratches, or visible signs of use.The form of this vase evokes the spirit of 1960s Czechoslovakian innovation: bold color pairings and organic freedom of shape speak of an era when glass became a medium for artistic risk and artisan precision. The seamless blending of hues suggests captured movement, while the reflective surface shifts with its environment, as if the vase rewrites its own narrative with each new day—a reflection of Central European modernist momentum.The vase can be placed on a console or sideboard in a living room, where natural or spotlighting will highlight its colors and sculptural texture. It pairs well with other glass or ceramic accents from the period, as well as with teak or veneered furniture that will amplify its artistic presence. In collector’s or eclectic interiors, the vase can stand alone as a signature piece or become part of a curated arrangement of Czechoslovak design.No detailed technical data provided; for cleaning
