ABOUT PRODUCTID 1624
The 'Pan młody' vase, designed by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz in 1972 at the Glass Institute in Kraków, stands as a refined example of Polish artistic glassware with a distinctly modernist heritage. Crafted from richly colored, translucent red glass, the vase displays balanced proportions—18.5 cm in height and 12.5 cm in diameter. Its cylindrical base with smooth sides transitions seamlessly into a midsection densely adorned with raised glass discs, lending the piece a sculptural, tactile dimension. The upper part flares outward into a generous, trumpet-like mouth, providing a dynamic visual contrast to the more compact lower section. The glossy surface enhances the depth and intensity of the color, amplifying reflections and subtle shifts in light. The vase is preserved in excellent condition, free from chips, cracks, or visible signs of use. Within this form, one senses the energy of the early 1970s—a period when Polish glassware not only responded to global trends but also interpreted them with a uniquely local touch. The saturated crimson hue recalls the optimism and expressiveness of the era, while the applied discs seem to narrate a story of craftsmanship meeting artistic invention. The vase seems to whisper: “I have witnessed a time when everyday life gained color, and every detail carried meaning.” It serves as a strong accent piece, well suited for pairing with simple mid-century forms or a neutral background to highlight both its vibrant color and intricate texture. It can stand alone
