The "Panna Młoda" ("Bride") vase, designed by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz for the Krakow Glass Institute in the 1970s, stands as a compelling example of Polish modernist design blended with organic, Art Nouveau-inspired motifs. The silhouette marries a wide, bulbous base with an elongated, slender neck, which is vertically adorned with looped, embossed glass details reminiscent of scales or dewdrops. The vase’s cool, milky white hue carries a refined greenish opalescence; its semi-translucent glass diffuses light softly, and the glossy finish imparts a sense of lightness. A wide, slightly flared rim accentuates the sculptural quality, while the raised glass accents around the neck scatter reflections and lend tactile dimension. The condition is worn—visible chipping among the decorative elements attests to its authentic vintage character.This vase echoes the spirit of 1970s Polish studio glass, an era marked by a dialogue between tradition and innovation. The flowing lines of the base contrast with the rhythmic texture of the neck—a form that seems to recount a period when glassmakers sought both functional beauty and sculptural boldness. The subtle, opalescent white suggests freshness and clarity, and each ripple or imperfection narrates a chapter of handcraft and creative risk. The vase’s presence is tactile and evocative, bearing traces of the era’s pursuit of striking, yet everyday, artistry.Within a living room or
