A charming example of Polish Postmodern glass design, created by Jerzy Słuczan-Orkusz for Huta Tarnowiec in the 1970s.
This vase reinterprets the classical amphora shape through a whimsical, 1970s lens. The cylindrical neck rises from a bulbous base and is flanked by two prominent clear glass scroll handles (volutes). These applied details add a sculptural, almost Neoclassical quality to the piece, contrasting beautifully with the smooth, opaline pink body (selenium glass).
At 7.25 inches tall, it is a perfect "cabinet size" vase – large enough to stand out, but compact enough for a bookshelf or mantelpiece display.
