ABOUT PRODUCTID 12725
The vase designed by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz and produced in the 1970s at the Krakow Glass Institute exemplifies Polish mid-century modern glass artistry. Its form recalls the classic amphora: a rounded, bulbous body, wide flared neck, and two perfectly circular handles symmetrically placed high on the neck. The distinctive color palette features a vivid, transparent cherry red at the top, blending smoothly into a rich amber-orange at the base—a striking gradient expressed in the highly polished, glossy glass surface. The vase has no additional ornamentation, emphasizing the clarity of the material and the fluidity of its silhouette. Its harmonious proportions are further articulated by the seamless connection of the neck, body, and handles. The piece is preserved in very good condition: no visible signs of use, damage, or repair; it maintains the original structure and hue, standing as an authentic example of Polish vintage craftsmanship.This vase echoes the spirit of the 1970s—a period marked by bold colors, optimism, and refined simplicity in design. The interplay of intense reds and ambers speaks of a time when Polish glass studios, such as the Krakow Glass Institute, embraced technical innovation and expressive color. While unadorned, the vase has a sense of calm monumentality, capturing the mastery of glass artisans who sought to highlight the pure potential of light and tone within the material. The ring-like handles, perfectly circular, evoke the designer’s appreciation for universal, approachable
