ABOUT PRODUCTID 36522
This vase, designed by Kazimierz Krawczyk and produced by Huta Sudety in the 1970s, is a refined example of Polish modernist glasswork. Its silhouette is defined by a tall, cylindrical stem with two distinctive spool-like constrictions, seamlessly transitioning into a wide, gently flared bowl. The soda-lime glass is mass-colored in a vibrant orange, featuring a gradient effect: the base and stem display a deep amber hue, while the bowl transitions to lighter, honey-yellow tones, allowing light to filter beautifully through the form. The surface is smooth and glossy, devoid of additional ornamentation, emphasizing the piece’s minimalist character. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with no visible chips, cracks, or signs of wear.The form itself seems to narrate the story of the Polish glass school of the 1970s, when designers—drawing inspiration from the legacy of Zbigniew Horbowy—embraced bold, minimalist shapes and saturated colors. The vessel evokes the image of an open torch, a symbol of light and optimism intended to brighten everyday interiors. The glass’s transparency and vibrant color give the impression that the vase ‘lives’ with light: every turn and shift in perspective reveals new tonalities, creating a sense of shimmering, luminous presence.The vase can be paired with other pieces of Polish design from the 1960s and 70s or with minimalist, contemporary vessels of clean lines. It would work well atop a light wood console, surrounded by ceramics, glass, or metal accents. This piece suits modern interiors as a solo accent or as part of an eclectic vintage collection—especially in spaces inspired by mid-century modern or minimalist approaches to décor.The vase is made of
