A sculptural pair of mid-20th century claret jugs formed as stylized ducks, crafted in the Czech Republic circa 1960. Each body is blown in deep cranberry pink glass, its rounded volume resting on a small circular foot, while applied clear glass wings curve outward in smooth, fluid lines. The elongated necks rise gracefully to silver-plated metal heads, modeled with defined eyes and beaks that open on a hinge to serve as spouts. The contrast between the saturated glass and the cool metallic finish creates a refined visual balance, further emphasized by the polished surfaces.
Marked “Czechoslovakia” on the metal mounts, the pair reflects the longstanding Bohemian glassmaking tradition, renowned for its clarity, controlled coloration, and confident integration of sculptural form with functional design.
