The 'Flame' vase is a design by Zbigniew Horbowy, produced by Huta Szkła 'Sudety' in Szczytna Śląska in the 1970s. Crafted from soda-lime glass, colored in the mass and hand-formed using a gradient technique, the piece is distinguished by a pronounced narrowing almost at mid-height, dividing the body into two nearly equal sections: a cylindrical base and a slender, oval upper part. The color transitions smoothly from a deep burgundy at the base—where the glass is densest—through vivid red, to lighter, luminous tones at the top, demonstrating the designer's masterful use of color.
