ABOUT PRODUCTID 2176
This Art Deco vase from the 1920s, attributed to Carl Meltzer and produced in Haida, Czechoslovakia, exemplifies glassmaking craftsmanship that combines geometric precision with the decorative flair of its era. Measuring 24.2 cm in height, the vase is made from thick, clear glass overlaid with a vibrant red hue—deeply saturated at the center and gradually lightening towards the top and base. The faceted, multi-tiered surface features pronounced horizontal ridges and sharp-edged cuts, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, while the architectural cylindrical form ensures balanced proportions and stability. Its glossy finish highlights the depth of color, and the precise, uniform facets reveal the high level of workmanship typical of the finest glassworks in the region. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with only minimal, age-consistent wear to the underside edges and no visible chips or damage. The form of this vase remains silent, yet it whispers stories of a time when everyday glass objects became statements of modernity. Central European Art Deco is a play of light and color—here, the red glass seems to pulse as the daylight shifts, and the facets echo the inspiration of skyscraper silhouettes and geometric motifs of the 1920s. A piece that recalls the rhythm of salons and studies from a century ago, it preserves the freshness of a functional yet ornamental approach. The vase may be displayed solo on an oak console or marble tabletop, where its interplay with light can be fully appreciated. It would suit interiors styled in an eclectic Art Deco spirit, but could equally find its place in contemporary settings, paired with metallic accents or minimalist ceramics. It is worth combining with other geometric forms or a single sculptural branch to emphasize its architectural presence.
