A striking mid-century art glass bowl designed in the distinctive style of Josef Hospodka for Chribska Glassworks, Czechoslovakia.

Renowned for his bold organic forms and dramatic use of colour, Hospodka’s designs remain some of the most recognisable and sought-after examples of twentieth-century European studio glass.

This sculptural bowl features flowing freeform rims with pronounced folded and pulled edges, creating a dynamic floral-like silhouette.

The glass combines vibrant shades of blue and green suspended within clear crystal glass, producing a beautiful sommerso effect that changes with the light and viewing angle.

The substantial form, heavy construction and expressive shape make this an impressive decorative centrepiece, embodying the innovative artistry that made Czech glass internationally celebrated during the mid-century period.
