Turquoise Magic - Vladislav Urban MORAVIA Vase


One of the few pieces still available at our shop. The sales of Sklo Union vases have exploded during the lockdown months and most of our inventory is gone. I was able to source new pieces, which sold instantaneously, some of them in less than 24 hours. This turquoise blue MORAVIA vase was designed by Vladislav Urban in 1969 for Rosice Glassworks of former Czechoslovakia. This is a fabulous glass piece in a very hard to find color. Truly, a great find. You can buy it now HERE

Frantisek Vizner Vase 20053 for Sklo Union, a very special listing


I listed a very special item this week. This beautiful set of four glass vases, each in a different color. This piece was created by Czech designer Frantisek Vizner (1936-2011) in 1963 for Czechoslovakia glass factory Hermanova Hut with pattern 20053. It is a small piece with 8,5 centimeters of height but this design is perfect and this small glass vase turned out to be one of Vizner's most recognized designs. The set in four colors, clear glass, pale light blue, old pink and lilac. Enjoy the pictures.

I am placing a direct link to the listing here

Newest additions: Frantisek Vizner and Pavel Pánek Vases



Just added three new Czech glass vases to the shop. I love them all but, well, they are for sale now... so hush if you like these because they likely will sell pretty fast. 

I listed two stunning jardiniere style vases in heavy glass designed by Frantisek Vizner to Libochovice Glassworks in the 1960's and both showing strong optical style characteristic of Vizner works. The third is a small vase designed by Pavel Pánek for Rosice Glassworks in 1974 with pattern 3516. This Pavel's glass vase has the same vibes of his other boob vases and bowls. 

Frantisek Vizner designed this jardiniere vase pattern 3236 for Libochovice

Modern Czech Glass Vases

One more post filled with lovely Czech glass vases. Today I bring four of my favorites Sklo Union pressed glass vases, all of which have been added to our Etsy Store recently. The vases in these post are from Pavel Panek (1), Vladislav Urban (2) and Adolf Matura(1) and all four of them are in fantastic condition. The squared vase designed by Matura is simply stunning, one of a kind, a collectors piece very hard to find around here. I must confess that I do have second thoughts about this listing it but, at the same time, I just can not keep all the vases that I have right now and for the time being I will stick to my plan of offering collectors out there the chance to own these beauties. 

These vase you find in our Etsy store.

Jiri Brabec 

Jiri Brabec (1933-2005) created over 200 designs for Rosice Glassworks, part of the so called Sklo Union, a cooperative of glass producers of former Czechoslovakia. Brabec graduated from the College of Arts and Crafts in Prague and was a colleague of other famous Sklo Union designer like Frantisek Vízner, Rudolf Jurnikl and Vladislav Urban. Later he worked in Rosice near Brno where he created over 200 designs. I have just listed this amazing vase to our Etsy store. Surprisingly, it is the first Brabec vase I ever found, they are quite rare around here. You find the vase here
