ABOUT PRODUCTID 12571
This vase, designed by Hana Mahanovska for Huta Mstisov in the 1960s, exemplifies Czech mid-century modern design, celebrating both material and color. It is crafted from highly polished, transparent glass, with three vertical streaks in shades of blue, yellow, and pale green. The colors flow smoothly along the surface, conveying a sense of movement and lightness. The vessel’s form is organically curved, with a wide, wavy rim enhancing its sculptural aspect. The clear base ensures stability and maintains balanced proportions. There are no visible signs of wear or damage; the glass remains in excellent vintage condition, with no evidence of restoration or later intervention.This vase speaks in the language of Czech modernism: through its transparent planes and saturated colors emerges the optimism of the postwar era. Calm blue, sunny yellow, and fresh green combine to tell a subtle story about designers seeking harmony between art and daily life. The organic lines and softly blended streaks make this piece more than a utilitarian object—it is a small glass sculpture, reflecting light and the passage of time in the spirit of an age dreaming of modern, luminous interiors.The vase may be displayed on a light wood console or vintage sideboard, echoing its gentle dynamism. It could be paired with neutral-toned ceramics or white porcelain pieces to foreground the glass’s delicate color interplay. The vase will work as a soloist in a mid-century arrangement, or as part of an eclectic collectors’ interior where it can converse with art glass from different decades.
