This vase from the Łysa Góra Glassworks exemplifies Polish studio glass of the 1970s, offering a postmodern interpretation of the mid-century modern aesthetic. Its gourd-like silhouette features two bulbous sections tapering into a narrow neck and wide mouth, flanked by sculptural side 'handles' made from separately applied clear glass. These organic, wavy-edged applications reflect the experimental character of Polish glass art from this era. The main body displays a warm honey-amber orange, streaked with subtle yellow and white veining that deepens the translucent effect. The glossy surface is marked by visible air bubbles and occasional inclusions, attesting to its hand-blown, artisanal origin. Both the main vessel and side elements share a refined, tactile finish, with the side décor introducing a touch of asymmetry and three-dimensionality. In terms of collector value and function, the vase is in very good condition—there are no chips, cracks, or losses, but light superficial scratches on the underside signal its age.This piece might narrate the creative fervor of Polish design in the 1970s, when established techniques converged with a hunger for experimentation and personal expression. Its bulbous, wavily adorned form suggests the organic fantasies of the era—glass is not confined to symmetry, and light glides along the ruffled edges,
