This vase, designed by Kazimierz Krawczyk for Huta Szkła 'Sudety' in the 1970s, exemplifies the artistic glass traditions of postwar Poland. Crafted from cased, colored soda glass, it displays a vibrant lime-green hue that subtly transitions from a saturated base to a lighter, almost yellow-green shade at the top. The geometric, modernist silhouette features a wide, flared mouth, a conical body, and a substantial, rounded base, complemented by two symmetrical circular handles near the rim. The surface is smooth and glossy, highlighted by a finely ground and polished foot. Its proportions are balanced, referencing the architectural language of the Zbigniew Horbowy school. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with no visible signs of wear, damage, or restoration.This piece embodies the voice of 1970s Polish modernism: bold color and thoughtful form speak of an era when applied arts sought expression through material quality and simplicity. The mirror-like glass surface reflects the lively, experimental spirit of its decade. While the handles are geometric, they introduce a playful note—a subtle nod to the optimism and openness of postwar Polish design.The vase can serve as a striking centerpiece in a living room or hallway, especially when placed on a light-toned tabletop or a natural wood console. It pairs well with simple, modernist furnishings, contrasting glassware, and single, graphic-stemmed flowers. Interiors inspired by mid-century modern or collector’s eclecticism will benefit from its vivid focal point; it may be combined with ceramic decor or abstract artwork to accentuate its architectural profile.Dimensions:
