Vase - Relief on tree bark

Relief frosted on tree-bark, Mid Century Modern, clear glass • Huta Szkła Laura (attrib.), Poland • ca. 1960–1970 Cylindrical vase of thick, clear glass with columns of relief frost on a ground of tree-bark, in Art Deco style. Each rose is built from spirally laid leaves and stands as a glass rosette before the vertical grooves of the bark. The punched neck adds a third texture. On the windowsill or under a lamp, every leaf catches the light. For this object there is also a Buy Now price set, for those who want to acquire it immediately without waiting. Description: Cylindrical body with a slightly flaring, punched neck and a thick rounded rim. Around the wall stand columns of four roses stacked above each other, with the bark ground in between. At the bottom sits a ribbed footrim, the base is slightly hollow. The glass is thick-walled pressed; the 685 grams are tangible in the hand. The same model was also made in honey-colored, orange and peach-pink glass. Polish shops know it as the rose vase 'Róże' from Huta Laura. About the maker: Tarnów, in the south of Poland, was a glass city. The large glass factory, founded in 1934 by Walter Heinrich, employed over a thousand people in 1972 and exported hand-formed glass. In December 1975, the workers’ cooperative Huta Szkła Laura joined, registered for pressed and cast utility glass. The rose decoration of this vase retraces the pressed glass of the interwar period; the thick wall and the bark ground are from the seventies.
