This hand-blown vase, designed by Michał Jakubas for the Glass Institute in Poland in the 1970s, reflects the modernist approach of the era. Made from mass-colored soda-lime glass, it features a gradient of hues flowing from golden yellow at the neck through amber to a deep burnt orange at the base. The glossy surface enhances the soft transitions of color, while small air bubbles and subtle natural inclusions attest to its artisanal origin. Sculptural, stylized handles—looped and organic—are attached on each side, a hallmark of Polish artistic glass from the 1970s. The bulbous body with broad shoulders merges smoothly into a gently flared mouth. The piece is preserved in excellent original condition, with no visible damage or repairs, ensuring its authenticity remains intact.Jakubas’s vase speaks in the voice of an era defined by creative exploration—the organic handles and fluid color gradients evoke nature and the color experiments so characteristic of the 1970s. Its sculptural shape seems to whisper of the freedom found in handcraft, emphasizing both the lightness and expressive dynamism of contemporary Polish applied arts. The glossy surface captures and reflects light in flowing transitions, creating a lively interplay of shadow and illumination that subtly enlivens any room with a design gesture from its time.This vase could be paired with heavier ceramic vessels or minimalist wall graphics, creating a contemporary display on a console, bookshelf, or windowsill. It would perform well in interiors drawing on modernist influences, yet also complements eclectic spaces where its glass tones highlight the diversity of materials. Consider combining it with natural wood, matte ceramics, and a single branch or dried grass—its color and form will then become a striking accent against a calm background.
