This hand-blown glass vase by Formano, created in Germany during the 1980s, exemplifies the era’s dedication to decorative craftsmanship and minimalist aesthetics. Crafted from high-quality crystal glass, the vase features a substantial yet delicate silhouette, with an organic, asymmetrical shape reminiscent of a water-smoothed pebble or teardrop. The transparent glass carries a subtle greenish hue, highlighting the natural qualities of the material, while the flawless, glossy surface reflects light, lending the piece a liquid-like luminosity. The rim is gently undulating, and the thick, rounded base provides stability. The original 'for-mano mundgeblasen' sticker attests to its authenticity and artisan technique, while tiny air bubbles inherent to the hand-blowing process subtly emphasize its handcrafted origin. The vase is preserved in excellent condition—clear, spotless glass with no scratches, cracks, or chips, and the original label intact.This vase narrates the spirit of the 1980s—a period when minimalism and a return to natural simplicity became defining features in European design. Its form suggests a dialogue between nature and craftsmanship: the irregular lines evoke river stones shaped by water, and the transparent body allows light to travel through, casting soft, shifting reflections. The restrained shape echoes both Scandinavian minimalism and German precision, transforming material purity into a statement of quiet expression.The vase would suit contemporary or eclectic interiors, where it could be paired with simple, geometric ceramics or steel accents to underscore the refined simplicity of glass. Placed on a console against light walls, it will accentuate natural daylight; set
