This vase, created by Michał Jakubas at the Glass Institute Workshop in Kraków in 1972, is a representative example of Polish artistic glass from the 1970s. Made from colored glass in a cool, medium-saturated green, the design features a sculptural, geometric form: a wide, trumpet-shaped mouth, a central spherical node, and a cylindrical stem that transitions into a double-disc base. The surface is smooth, glossy, and uniform, with no pattern or texture, while the proportions are harmonious and thoughtfully considered—reflecting the mid-century modern idiom typical of Polish design from this era. Elements are seamlessly joined. The vase is in very good condition, with no damage or signs of wear.This object tells the story of 1970s Polish modernism, when artistic glass became a statement of creative freedom and contemporary aesthetics. The cool green and clear lines evoke the atmosphere of studios where color and light were the main media of artistic exploration. The vase stands as a silent witness to an era when simplicity equaled boldness: its color and form speak of the search for harmony between function and artistic expression.It can be paired with other mid-century glass objects to emphasize a collector’s interior. The vase works well atop an oak sideboard or a minimalist shelf, where the interplay of light on its glossy surface will reveal the depth of its color. It is worth combining with raw, geometric forms—such as a metal sculpture or matte ceramic—to highlight its modernist origins and the strength of its chromatic accent.The vase measures 33.5 cm in height with a diameter of 12.6 cm. The colored glass maintains a uniform, vivid tone and is smooth to the touch. It requires no special care beyond gentle cleaning with a soft, damp cloth to preserve its lustrous finish.
