This vase from Huta Ząbkowice, crafted in Poland during the 1970s, is a quintessential example of Polish modernism from the era. Its construction features a slender, hand-blown silhouette with a gently flared, asymmetrical mouth. The piece is defined by its translucent, vibrant ruby red hue, accentuated by an opaque white spiral ribbon that elegantly wraps around the body, creating a dynamic retro pattern characteristic of mid-century modern glassware. The surface boasts a high-gloss, polished finish with no visible joins or glued elements – the vase is realized as a single glass form. Carefully balanced proportions see the neck smoothly transitioning to a wider base. The overall condition is excellent, with no chips, cracks, or signs of restoration.The vivid color palette and spiral motif give this piece a strong voice of its decade, when optimism and modernity shaped everyday objects with a fusion of craftsmanship and graphic design. The red glass seems to pulse with energy, while the white spiral speaks of the dynamism and rhythm of the 1970s. More than mere utilitarian décor, this vase serves as a glass relic from a time when Polish design confidently embraced bold color and expressive graphics, offering a breath of renewal within the repetition of communist-era interiors.It can be displayed in a living room, either placed alone on a console or a shelf to highlight its sculptural presence and saturated tones. The vase pairs well with other glass or ceramic accents from the era – against both light and dark backgrounds. It will thrive in retro-inspired or eclectic interiors, as well as mid-century modern spaces, where its bold graphic rhythm and hint of retrofuturism can be fully appreciated.
