A sculptural amethyst-toned glass vase defined by its crisp wheel-cut lattice pattern and softly tapered form. The intersecting diamond cuts animate the surface, catching and refracting light with a subtle, controlled brilliance. Its gently flared rim and rounded body create a balanced silhouette that reads equally well as a standalone object or with florals. The translucent purple tone shifts in intensity depending on lighting, enhancing its decorative presence. A refined yet approachable piece with strong visual rhythm.
Attribution & Period
Unmarked decorative arts example, consistent with Czech or Bohemian glass production, 1980s. The combination of colored glass with precision wheel-cut geometric patterning aligns with late 20th-century Central European decorative glass traditions. No factory mark observed; attribution remains visual rather than documented.
Dimensions & Weight
Condition
Very good overall condition. No cracks or structural damage observed. Minor surface wear consistent with age and handling, including light base wear and faint surface abrasions. No chips detected along rim or body.
Authenticity & Construction
Mouth-blown glass form finished with wheel-cut decoration. The lattice pattern is mechanically cut into the surface after forming, creating shallow faceted channels that interact with light. This method reflects traditional Central European glassworking techniques adapted for late 20th-century decorative production.
Placement
Ideal for use as a sculptural accent on shelving, consoles, or side tables. Works well in modern, postmodern, or transitional interiors, particularly where colored glass is used to introduce controlled contrast. Effective both empty and with minimal floral arrangements.
STANDARD ATTRIBUTION & VALUE DISCLOSURE; This piece is described to the best of current scholarly and market knowledge. Any maker or regional attribution is based on visual analysis, materials, construction techniques, and documented stylistic comparisons. As with many MCM and antique design objects, definitive attribution may not be possible without original labels or factory records. Pricing reflects condition, quality, decorative appeal, and current collector demand rather than guaranteed maker identification.
