ABOUT PRODUCTID 11666
This vase from the 1970s, attributed to HSG Tarnowiec, exemplifies Polish decorative glass in the late modernist tradition. Its bulbous, organic form features a short, cylindrical neck in a smoky grey hue. The main body is rendered in a warm, muted brown with a pronounced gradient—lighter at the base and deepening towards the top. The glass surface is highly glossy and mirror-like, amplifying the interplay of light and reflections. Two symmetrical, clear glass loop handles and a transparent glass base contrast visually with the robust silhouette, highlighting the crafted character of the piece. The vase is made from hand-blown and formed glass, displaying uniformity and a lack of visible seams. It is preserved in very good condition, with no chips, cracks, or visible signs of wear.The vase evokes the spirit of the 1970s, when Polish artistic glass navigated the boundary between function and experimentation. It seems to tell a story of an era where form became increasingly significant, and the brown gradient alongside transparent details reflected a search for new aesthetic solutions. While originating from a period of mass production, the object retains an individual character—its gleaming surface capturing shifting daylight, with transparent handles softening the visual weight of the body. Its gentle curves echo the modernist optimism and openness to light that defined its time.The vase may be displayed on a light wood sideboard, where its brown gradient and polished surface interact with natural light. It pairs well with other objects from the 1960s and 1970s, especially ceramics in muted tones or metallic, geometric décor accents. Suitable for mid-century modern interiors, minimalist living rooms, or vintage collector’s spaces, it can be complemented by simple-textured textiles or singular, sculptural plants with strong forms.
