The 'butla smok' vase is an avant-garde piece of Polish artistic glass from the turn of the 1960s and 1970s, designed by Józef Górski and produced by HSG Tarnów. Its distinctive form features an organic, teardrop-shaped body with a central circular opening, a short cylindrical neck topped with a smooth rim, and a striking, clear glass crest running along one side. The soda-lime glass is colored in the mass, displaying a deep cobalt blue that gradually transitions into lighter, almost transparent tones at the base. The highly polished, glossy surface and sculptural detailing reinforce the innovative character of the design. The proportions are harmonious and thoughtfully balanced, while the raised, bubble-like protrusions of the crest add both tactile and visual rhythm. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with no visible signs of wear, damage, or restoration.This object speaks to the boldness of Polish design in the 1960s—a period when experimentation and playful form became hallmarks of artistic glassworks. The saturated cobalt blue and assertive silhouette evoke the vibrant energy of the New Look movement: glass that is both sensual and intriguingly unconventional. The central opening and bubble-like crest invite light into the vessel, multiplying reflections and shadows as if on a theatrical stage. Every detail expresses imagination—this is glass that refuses to blend in, consciously crafting its own presence.The vase can serve as a focal point on a console in the living room, where
