A sculptural mid‑century Czech art glass duck‑form decanter featuring a vibrant pink blown‑glass body with clear applied wings and a brass hinged figural head. The elongated teardrop silhouette and hand‑applied wings highlight the expressive, playful forms associated with mid‑century Bohemian studio glass.
The head is crafted from a non-magnetic metal (likely brass or a brass-based alloy), confirmed by magnet test and opens smoothly on its original hinge. The glass displays beautiful internal reflections and a rich cranberry‑pink tone that reads beautifully in natural light.
Unmarked, typical for Czech studio production of the 1950s–1970s. The interior “XX” engraving is an assembly mark used to match hand‑fitted components during production.
A striking piece for barware collectors, animal‑form glass enthusiasts, or anyone building a colorful mid‑century display.
