This hand-blown glass vase was created in the 1970s at the Karlov Glassworks in former Czechoslovakia and is attributed to the design of Jaroslav Svoboda. The tall, slender vessel gently widens towards a conical, solid base that provides stability to the whole. The clear glass body features a glossy, smooth finish, true to mid-century modern objects. The most distinctive detail is a dynamic spiral of vivid yellow glass, meticulously wrapped around the neck and strikingly contrasted with the transparent surface beneath. The yellow spiral maintains an even, saturated color and is applied with great precision, reflecting high artisanal skill. The base is slightly thickened for assured stability and emphasizes quality workmanship. The vase shows no signs of wear or restoration; the glass retains its original luster, clarity, and flawless finish—remaining in very good condition.The piece embodies the innovative momentum of the 1970s, where the classic clarity of mid-century forms fuses with the playful spirit of postmodernist decoration. The yellow ribbon seems to narrate the boldness of designers from the era, blending experimental aesthetics with joyful flair. The juxtaposition of a transparent vessel and a vivid, swirling detail conjures the atmosphere of a time open to both tradition and spontaneous play—as if the vase itself suggested that an object might be at once refined and energetically expressive.In the living room, it can be paired with other glass objects in simple forms or stand alone on a shelf, sideboard, or end table. The bold spiral accents blend well with geometric mid-century elements, and its strong color impact can be balanced with a neutral wall palette or dark wood accessories. The vase is well-suited for collector’s interiors as well as minimalist spaces, where a single patterned detail introduces a unique rhythm into the decor.
