ABOUT PRODUCTID 14052
This vase, crafted at Huta Zelezny Brod in Czechoslovakia during the 1950s, exemplifies the distinctive language of mid-century modern applied glass. Its silhouette is slender and organic, with gently curved sides that rise into a long neck, subtly splitting into two rounded projections at the rim. The transparent glass displays a light green tint, shifting in intensity from the more saturated hue at the neck to almost clear or slightly yellowish near the base—a nuanced gradient characteristic of the era’s artisanal glass techniques. The surface is highly polished, reflecting light and accentuating sculptural lines, while the absence of visible seams indicates hand-blown manufacture. The thick, rounded base ensures stability and a sense of substance, yet decorative restraint is maintained: no patterns or added colors detract from the purity of the material or the clarity of its 1950s proportions. The vase remains in excellent preserved condition, free from chips, cracks, repairs, or visible marks; the glossy surface is unblemished and shows no sign of wear.This vessel tells a silent story of mid-century Czechoslovakia, where modernism met optimism through fluid form and refined craft. Its asymmetrical, burgeoning shape seems to echo the organic vitality of postwar design—a time when glass sought to balance the everyday with a note of avant
