ABOUT PRODUCTID 38992
This glass snuff bottle from the 1950s, originating from Germany, is crafted from layered glass with a distinctive marbled mosaic pattern. Its form is that of a flattened, rounded bottle with a short, narrow neck, measuring 10 cm in height, 7 cm in width, and 2.5 cm in depth. The dominant color is a semi-translucent white, interlaced with navy blue and black streaks that flow organically across the surface, creating dynamic, seamless lines. The surface is smooth and glossy, while the base is precisely ground flat—a detail that reflects the high level of craftsmanship typical of mid-century German glassmaking. The original “Althbayerische Kristal Glashutte” sticker confirms the authenticity of the piece. The condition is described as ideal: the bottle shows no signs of wear and retains its original luster.This compact bottle embodies the finesse of postwar modernism: biomorphic lines and mosaic patterns evoke the creative experimentation with form and color that defined German glass in the 1950s. The glass, though cool to the touch, seems alive with subtle movement—its patterns reminiscent of flowing water or drifting smoke, suggesting an object caught in a moment of elegant transformation. It tells the story of an era when everyday items were elevated through artistic vision and became emblems of aesthetic exploration.The snuff bottle can serve as a striking accent on a living room console or as part of a curated vintage glass collection on a shelf. It pairs well with minimalist backgrounds that highlight its biomorphic lines and sheen, as well as with other glass objects from the era—carafes, slender vases, or matte ceramics—so that its dynamic form and coloration can be fully appreciated.No special care is required beyond gentle wiping with a soft cloth to maintain
