This lemon squeezer, produced by HSG Ząbkowice in Poland during the 1970s, is made from clear glass with a cool, slightly blueish undertone. The surface reveals a subtle variation in texture: the handle and rim feature a gently frosted, textured effect, while the main pressing area is left smooth and glossy. The conical ribbed element extracts juice efficiently, encircled by a ring of pronounced glass nubs designed to separate seeds and pulp. The shallow bowl-shaped base includes an integrated spout and a compact, sturdy handle. The construction is functional and robust, characteristic of modernist utilitarian glassware from the mid-20th century. The condition is very good, with no visible cracks or chips—just minor surface marks consistent with period use.In this modest vessel, the spirit of 1970s Poland is captured—an era when everyday life was shaped by a need for simplicity and practicality. The dense, cool-hued glass form evokes kitchen routines of the decades past, where clarity of purpose was mirrored by clarity of material. Rhythmic ribbing and transparent lines underscore the primacy of function, yet linger as a quiet witness to daily rituals: squeezing a lemon becomes a small ceremony, preserving an echo of tranquil repetition amid a changing world.The squeezer can be paired with other pieces in clear or frosted glass to create a subtly industrial table composition. It would also complement enamelware or plainly shaped ceramics, particularly within a vintage or eclectic kitchen styled after the 1960s or 1970s. Displayed on an open shelf with bar accessories or kitchen implements—alongside a carafe, glassware, or metal ice tongs—it becomes a discreet yet functional accent in a thoughtfully arranged interior.
