ABOUT PRODUCTID 14060
This glass vase, designed by Josef Hospodka in 1960s Czechoslovakia, exemplifies the modernist vocabulary of mid-century design. Crafted from thick, heavy-walled glass, its form is sculptural and asymmetrical, rising in fluid, organic lines with undulating, softly elevated edges. The palette transitions from yellow, amber and honey tones to subtle pink and light amethyst hues towards the base—creating a refined ombre effect. The semi-transparent glass structure allows daylight to permeate its body, revealing tonal depth and a play of reflections. Decorative cutouts and indentations at the base showcase artisanal skill, while the glossy, high sheen finish and original factory stickers authenticate its provenance. The vase retains a very good state of preservation, free from chips, cracks, or signs of wear. No restoration traces are visible, making the piece a genuine survivor of its era.This object tells the story of 1960s Czechoslovak experimentation, an age when form and color became channels for optimism and artistic inquiry. The undulating silhouette captures the dynamism of a motion paused in glass, while the gradient color evokes the diffusion of pigment suspended mid-flow. Its lustrous surface alludes to the airy, modernist interiors of the time—where utility and sculptural spirit went side by side and even everyday objects
