ABOUT PRODUCTID 6696
This organizer, designed by Pavel Hlava in 1960s Czechoslovakia, exemplifies the modernist approach to art glass of the era. Crafted from heavy crystal glass, it features an elongated, geometric rectangular form with subtly curved sides and sharply faceted, polished edges that capture and reflect light from multiple directions. The deep cobalt-violet interior, achieved through the use of metal oxides during glass melting, is enveloped by a clear outer layer. Distinctive irregular silver inclusions and subtle amber-brown accents are embedded within, creating a dynamic, multi-layered visual effect. The base bears original Egermann Glassworks stickers, confirming its provenance. The piece is in very good condition, with no chips, cracks, or signs of restoration.This object resonates with the voice of 1960s Czech modernism, when glass moved beyond its utilitarian roots to become a medium for artistic exploration and experimentation. The amethyst depth of the interior and the shimmering silver inclusions recall the era's search for new forms: geometric discipline meets abstract expression. The shape seems to speak of designers' courage to unite precise craftsmanship with a fascination for light and color. Each facet reflects its surroundings, and the weighty glass underscores the object's presence—like an artistic capsule from an era of optimistic discovery.The organizer can be displayed on an oak console, a marble countertop, or a glass shelf, where its play of light and color becomes a focal point. It pairs well with other glass objects from the period or minimalist mid-century modern decor. It can be combined with matte metal or ceramics to accentuate the glass's gloss and color depth. Interiors with subdued palettes, collector's studies, or modernist living spaces will highlight its artistic pedigree.
