ABOUT PRODUCTID 1325
This vase, designed by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz in the 1980s, is crafted from hand-formed, mass-colored soda glass in a cool, milky white tone. Its slender silhouette is defined by a single, elongated handle that flows seamlessly into the body, creating an organic and dynamic profile. The wide, stable base gently narrows toward an asymmetrical, slightly tilted rim, lending the piece a sculptural and almost futuristic character. The glass surface is perfectly smooth, glossy, and uniform, with no visible seams, decorations, or traces of the forming process. Entirely monochromatic and devoid of patterns, the vase reflects its minimalist roots grounded in late 20th-century Polish modernism. The open, elongated handle introduces a sense of visual lightness and references biomorphic inspiration. Condition is very good, with no chips, cracks, or visible signs of wear.The vase tells the story of 1980s Poland—a period in which the pursuit of simplicity and functionality intersected with artistic expression. Its cool white hue and organic contours seem to transcend the ordinary, evoking a modernist spirit where glass serves equally as sculptural medium and functional vessel. The high-gloss surface reflects light, creating a subtle, almost ethereal aura around the object, as if the vase itself were a gentle source of illumination within the space.For interior arrangements, the vase can be paired with contemporary furnishings characterized by clean, geometric lines, providing a striking organic counterpoint. It is well suited against plain backgrounds, in the company of light wood, concrete, or other understated materials. The vase may be combined with select glass or ceramic vessels in neutral tones to highlight the subtlety of its milky white surface. In vintage collector's interiors, it is worth displaying the vase solo on a console or shelf, where it stands out as a utilitarian sculptural object.
