This vase, designed by Vicke Lindstrand for Kosta Glasbruk in Sweden during the 1950s, is a distinctive example of Scandinavian mid-century glass artistry. Crafted from thick, transparent glass, its lower section forms a substantial, clear base filled with evenly distributed air bubbles, lending both decorative and textural interest. The elongated, slender silhouette, gently flaring at the neck, is rendered in a rich, cool ruby red glass that transitions seamlessly into the transparent foundation. The surface is highly polished and smooth, reflecting light and emphasizing both the purity of the material and the craftsmanship typical of Lindstrand's work. The vase bears the designer’s signature on the underside, confirming its authenticity. It is preserved in excellent condition; a subtle abrasion or slight manufacturing imperfection is visible at the end of the neck, but this does not detract from the overall impression. In its form, the vase embodies the spirit of 1950s Sweden—a harmony of restraint and refined decoration. The ruby tone evokes the atmosphere of northern twilight, while the trapped air bubbles recall traces of breath caught in ice. The piece seems to narrate an era where craftsmanship and experimentation went hand in hand, with every detail—whether the noble glass mass or the architectural rhythm of its silhouette—carefully considered. Rather than dominating a space, the vase allows light and color to tell their own story. The vase can be displayed as a statement piece on a low console or light wood sideboard, where the deep red glass will accentuate the qualities of natural materials. It also works well among delicate, minimalist accessories—such as paired with white ceramics or a single, sculptural flower. Interiors inspired by mid-century modern, Scandinavian, or eclectic collector’s aesthetics will appreciate
