ABOUT PRODUCTID 13753
The 'Pieniek' vase represents a distinctive example of Czechoslovakian pressed glass from the mid-century modern era, designed by Vaclav Hanus in the 1960s. The vase features a tall, cylindrical form free of handles or additional ornaments, allowing focus on the surface that closely imitates the bark of a tree. The transparent glass transitions into a warm amber tone toward the base, with a glossy finish highlighting its irregular, bark-like relief. This sculptural object exhibits high craftsmanship, with seamless color gradation and defined textures. No chips, cracks, or restoration traces are visible – the piece is preserved in very good condition.The silhouette echoes the spirit of Central European modernism, where practical forms drew from the natural world. The Pieniek, a glass quotation of a log’s cross-section, introduces a sense of calm and thoughtful austerity. Its amber gradation, catching the light across ridges and dimples, seems to narrate the landscape of the 1960s, an era when modernist ideals merged with a renewed fascination for elemental textures and organic lines. The surface, reminiscent of the tactile feel of real wood, infuses the object with a sense of warmth rooted in traditional craft.This type of vase can serve as a standalone decorative accent on a light console or be grouped with other period pieces, such as ceramic vessels or minimalist mid-century candleholders. It complements environments featuring wood, raw concrete, or textiles with a pronounced weave, feeling at home in both mid-century modern interiors and more eclectic, collector-oriented spaces. The vase pairs well with simple-stemmed live flowers, or can be left empty to showcase the play of light and glass texture.Technical data is limited to the material – pressed glass – with no available dimensions. The vase requires no special care; to maintain its shine, gently wash with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
