ABOUT PRODUCTID 17507
This vase from the 'Bałtyk' set, designed by Zbigniew Horbowy in the 1970s at the 'Sudety' Glassworks in Szczytna Śląska, is a quintessential example of Polish mid-century modern aesthetics. Crafted from cased soda glass, it features an elongated cylindrical form that subtly widens towards the rim, finished by a softly flared organic edge. The color palette presents a harmonious gradient: deep cobalt blue at the mouth transitions smoothly into transparent pale yellow through the body, culminating in a warm amber tone at the thickened base. Its surface is perfectly smooth and high-gloss polished, with no visible bubbles or inclusions, highlighting the purity of the glass and technical mastery. Absence of decorative motifs expands the minimalist, modernist intention of the object. The vase presents no visible signs of wear, chips, or restoration—its condition remains very good.The object's airy lightness and clarity seem to tell the story of the calm, forward-thinking 1970s. Speaking in the language of its era, the vase channels Horbowy's innovative approach, forsaking extraneous ornamentation
