The 'Okulus' vase, crafted in the 1970s by HSG Ząbkowice, exemplifies pressed glasswork of Central European provenance. It features a tall, gently tapering cylindrical silhouette in entirely transparent glass with a cool undertone and high clarity. Vertical grooves intermingle with undulating, organic depressions across the surface, creating a dynamic and distinctly tactile pattern. The base is enhanced by multi-faceted geometric cuts that provide structural stability and accentuate the interplay of light and shadow. The overall finish is glossy and crystal clear, without any additional color accentuation—pure glass serves as the sole decorative element. Subtle traces of age in the form of minor chips at the rim and lower section attest to authentic vintage use. The vase is preserved in very good condition, absent of visible restoration; all features remain original to its period.This vessel speaks in the language of late 20th-century Polish modernism—a narrative of exploring texture, light, and the expressive possibilities of serial glass production. The transparency of the piece seems to channel the memory of glassworks at dawn: as light traverses the sculptural surface, rhythmic patterns and shifting shadows appear, suggesting a moment stilled mid-flow, much like water caught in motion. The tautly defined relief and robust profile offer a visual reference to the era's fascination with natural movement and material experiment.The vase lends itself well to contemporary or mid-century modern settings—on a minimalist console, a raw wooden tabletop, or within interiors emphasizing texture and glassware.
