This Bohemian crystal vase from the 1960s is distinguished by a modern, geometric silhouette typical of Central European mid-century design. Shaped from a single block of thick, leaded crystal, its trapezoidal form is defined by oblique edges, sharp angles, and perfectly polished surfaces. The deep, amethyst purple dominates – a cool, saturated hue that shifts in intensity depending on the crystal’s thickness and light angle. The lack of decorative cutting or engraving highlights the sculptural possibilities of the material and the era's purist design approach. Clean lines, asymmetrical proportions, and the parallelogram opening reflect a precise sensibility in line with the golden age of Czech glassmaking, renowned for its clarity and artistic quality. Condition: the vase remains in excellent condition, with no chips, cracks, or visible scratches; the surface is smooth, original, and repair-free, staying close to its initial state. The vase’s form seems to echo the voice of an era where light and material stood in subtle competition. Cool violet encased in solid crystal speaks of quiet nobility, while its crisp edges capture and scatter rays, creating shifting patterns of prismatic reflection. More than a vessel, it is a small sculptural presence, silently recounting modernist fascination with transparency and the choreography of light. The piece quietly asserts that design
