ABOUT PRODUCTID 41578
This vase, designed by Josef Hospodka for the Chribska glassworks in Czechoslovakia during the 1970s, exemplifies the organic, sculptural forms characteristic of Czech modernist glass from that era. The body features a vibrant, translucent chartreuse hue that gracefully transitions to clear glass at the base and edges, accentuating the fluidity of the silhouette. The vase is substantial, with elongated, smoothly flowing lobes and undulating contours that create a dynamic, almost floral outline. The construction relies on thick, heavy glass with integrated, gently curved handles. Its glossy surface enhances both the depth of color and the brilliance of light, while the irregular, wide rim underlines the unique visual identity of the piece. The vase is seamless, with no visible joints, and stands securely on a broad, transparent base. Condition is good – only minor internal residue is visible, with no chips or cracks.The form of this vase reflects the spirit of the 1970s, a time when Czech glassmakers embraced color and sculptural experimentation. Like a wave captured in motion, the object traps light and movement within a single mass, narrating an era of bold design and the search for new expressive means. The vase tells of a time when craftsmanship sought to transcend boundaries: its saturated color and dynamic silhouette suggest the energy of the decade, while subtle air bubbles and traces of hand-forming bear witness to the artisan's touch.This piece may be displayed solo on an oak sideboard or
