This vase from the Ząbkowice glassworks in Poland, crafted in the 1970s, represents Central European mid-century modern design. Made of thick, pressed glass in a warm, light amber or peach-pink tone, its color appears consistent throughout, with a subtle yellowish translucency. The tall body features straight sides that gently flare outward toward the top and rests upon an octagonal base for added stability. The outer surface is ornamented by regular vertical ribs and raised concentric circles reminiscent of bubbles in soda water—a distinctively modernist motif of the period. The inside remains smooth and undecorated, allowing the relief and gloss finish to accentuate the glass’s clarity and texture. The proportions are harmonious and the vase is preserved in very good condition, showing no chips or cracks, with only minor, age-appropriate scratches that do not detract from its appearance.This vase evokes an era when utilitarian objects were shaped by interplay between industry and craftsmanship. Its bubble-like motifs recall the optimism and lightness of the 1970s, their repetition echoing the rhythmic pulse of everyday life with a playful undertone. The softly translucent glass in warm tones refracts light subtly, making the piece a discreet but distinctive presence within any interior. Its form is both practical and decorative, and the geometric relief quietly narrates the story of a domestic modernity unique to its time.For interior settings, the vase can be paired with minimalist, light wood furniture or soft textiles to accentuate its mid-century modern heritage. It works well alongside ceramic accents with organic forms
