ABOUT PRODUCTID 19320
This set of six colored glass tumblers, dating to 1950s Czechoslovakia, presents a distinctly Art Deco profile with its low, rounded silhouette and wide, open bowl. Each glass is hand-blown, as evidenced by slight variations in wall thickness and the softly rounded rim, while the palette showcases translucent pastel tones—sky blue, amber, pale yellow, olive green, smoky grey, and nearly colorless gold. The surface is smooth and glossy, with no applied ornamentation, allowing the play of light and the radiance of each shade to take center stage. Subtle bubbles from the traditional mouth-blowing process enhance the glass’s tactile quality, acting as discrete signatures of the craftsman’s hand. The set remains in very good condition—only micro-scratches at the base and a few minuscule air bubbles are present, with no chips or cracks.In these glasses, the legacy of Czech glassmaking meets the restrained minimalism of the postwar 1950s—proportions are balanced, while the delicate color range speaks to an era redefining the concept of modern luxury. The bowls, free from unnecessary ornament, gather light like filmic snapshots of a quiet afternoon, and the small bubbles and smooth contours recall the history of region’s glassmaking, marked by refined materials and skilled hands. The set—timeless and quietly expressive—invites memories of a transitional time, when tableware embraced both craftsmanship and the functional purity of everyday rituals.This collection could be displayed atop a low wooden or marble sideboard, the nuanced hues glimmering in natural light. It serves as a refined accent for a collector’s home bar, especially when paired with geometric decanters, metal
