ABOUT PRODUCTID 13194
This Czechoslovakian vase from the 1950s exemplifies mid-century modern glassware – a spherical shape reflecting the era’s fascination with simplicity, harmony, and the play of light within the form. The mouth-blown glass, in a warm, light brown or amber hue, features a semi-translucent body that allows gentle light to diffuse through it. The vase’s surface is adorned with a regular pattern of rounded, raised ‘bubble’ motifs, emphasizing an organic sensibility and providing rich tactile texture. The glossy finish, free from additional handles or embellishments, embodies the mid-century modern approach of focusing on the relationship between material and light. Its harmonious proportions – a broad, round body tapering toward a subtly defined opening – define its timeless silhouette. The piece remains in very good vintage condition: there are no visible chips, cracks, or discolorations, and no signs of restoration or significant wear.This glass vessel seems to carry the spirit of the 1950s modernist optimism – it speaks of a postwar Europe discovering innovation through form and surface. The repeating bubble pattern gently scatters light, creating a sense of fluidity, as if the vase still remembers the moment it cooled in the glassmaker’s hands. The amber sheen enlivens the composition, while the unadorned purity of the form silently recalls an era when expressive materiality was paramount.
