ABOUT PRODUCTID 2004
This art glass vase, designed by Jaroslav Beranek for the Skrdlovice glassworks in Czechoslovakia circa 1960, embodies the sculptural language of Central European glassmaking from the 1960s. Hand-formed from multicolored glass, the vase features a dominant smoky brown hue enriched by subtle amber and blueish undertones.

Measuring 20.5 cm in height, its silhouette balances monumentality with an impression of lightness. The piece is preserved in excellent vintage condition, free from chips or cracks—a true collector’s specimen.

Shaped by the artisan’s hand, the glass captures the era’s quest for material vitality—light interacts with the undulating surface, creating an impression of movement frozen within the
