This hand-blown 'gniecione' glass vase from the 1970s, produced by Huta Krosno, is characterized by a tall, slender silhouette and a dynamically shaped, organic form. The rim is finished with four asymmetrical, undulating lobes, a result of skilled hot-forming techniques. Made of clear glass, the vase serves as a transparent canvas for vivid streaks and bands in shades of red, blue, green, yellow, and white. The bold coloration and spontaneous, abstract motif are evocative of mid-century modern design and Polish glass artistry of the era. Its glossy surface and characteristic ripples and deformations reveal unique traces of manual craftsmanship, giving each piece its individuality. The seamlessly finished edges and a rounded, stable base complement the overall construction, with no visible seams, chips, or cracks. The vase is in very good condition, with no signs of significant use.It captures the spirit of late modernist optimism: the glass appears frozen in a moment of motion, preserving the energy of swirling colors and lines. The form echoes a time when applied art introduced daring color and playful experimentation into everyday spaces. Its transparent mass and painterly, irregular streaks serve as a testament to the Polish glassmaking tradition—where classical techniques met the creative freedom of the 1970s.The vase can be displayed as a standalone piece on a sideboard or console by a window, allowing daylight to illuminate the glass and highlight its vibrant palette. It combines well with light wood furnishings and can be paired with neutral or boldly colored ceramics. This decorative object enhances retro, mid-century modern, or eclectic collector’s interiors, adding a touch of nostalgic yet distinctly modern expression.
