This crystal vase from the 1960s, designed by Odrich Lipsky and produced by Borské sklo, Nový Bor for Exbor, represents a pinnacle of Czechoslovak artistic glass from the mid-century modern era. Crafted using a layered crystal glass technique and hand-faceted with planar cuts, the vase features a deep, saturated cobalt blue as its dominant color, complemented by clear glass sections and subtle magenta-red accents along the edges, creating a striking multicolored effect. Its compact, sculptural form is distinctly geometric, with thick walls and a solid base. The surface is smooth, highly polished, and shows no visible signs of wear or damage. The vase is preserved in very good condition with no evidence of restoration.This piece echoes the spirit of the 1960s: a bold, architectural gesture that transforms an everyday object into a small sculpture. The interplay of colors flows like rays of light within the glass, while the faceted planes refract brightness and shadow, evoking the experimental ethos of modernist artists. The vase “speaks” of an era where craftsmanship and technology met on equal footing with artistic innovation—a testament to the ingenuity and technical mastery of Czechoslovak design.The vase can be paired with mid-century modern furnishings or eclectic collector’s interiors. It sits well on an oak or walnut tabletop, where the glass accentuates the wood’s natural depth. It may be combined with minimalist ceramics, a single branch, or left empty to let its form take center stage. In a bright setting, it reveals the full vibrancy of its color; against a neutral background, it becomes a luminous, striking accent.Height: 11 cm, width and depth: 8 × 8 cm.
