Designed by Bogdan Kupczyk for the Ząbkowice Glassworks in 1971, this vase exemplifies Polish utilitarian modernism of the 1970s. Made from pressed glass in a cool aqua blue-green hue, it draws the eye with its subtle transparency and striking geometric relief. The simple hexagonal body, with straight vertical sides and a gently flared rim, gives the vase a sculptural presence, enhanced by a rhythmic pattern of rectangular and hexagonal facets. The glossy, smooth surface brings out the depth of color and interplay of light and shadow, while the precise finish reflects a high level of craftsmanship. Catalogued under number 6048, this model is documented in the 1971 HSG Ząbkowice catalogue. The vase is preserved in very good original condition, with only minor surface scratches typical for glass of the era.This vase tells the story of Polish modernism—a time when geometric discipline and decorative flair met everyday functionality. Its faceted surface, reflecting light, evokes the architectural inspirations of the 1970s, when designers sought a new visual language for daily objects. The glass color—cool, deep, slightly translucent—creates an optical play, as if the vase wished to introduce a sense of freshness and structured rhythm into any space. Substantial to the touch, with crisp edges, it demonstrates a decorative yet pragmatic approach to utilitarian design.The vase could be paired with simple mid-century modern wooden furniture or
