Purple smoked glass footed bowl – Scandinavian design spirit

Decorative bowl in blown glass, tinted smoky plum purple, resting on a fine, slender circular base. Soft, minimalist silhouette inspired by Nordic design from the second half of the 20th century. The profile strongly evokes certain Finnish creations published by Iittala and the formal research around pure lines developed by designer Kaj Franck in the Kartio collection. No visible signature in the photographs. The exact attribution cannot therefore be confirmed with certainty. Connox +2. Mass-tinted glass with superb colour depth varying from plum to burgundy depending on the light. Dimensions: — Total height: 20 cm. — Opening diameter: 9.5 cm. — Height of the chalice: 14 cm. — Diameter of the chalice: 15 cm. — Diameter of the base: 11 cm. Probable dating: 1990s–2000s. Usage: — Decorative bowl. — Vase for short flowers or minimalist branches. — Centrepiece. — XXL candle holder. — Sculptural object on a sideboard or bookshelf. Condition: Very good vintage condition. No chips or cracks observed. A calm and graphic object. The kind of piece that transforms an evening light into a slightly melancholic Scandinavian film scene. Without snow. Well, almost. €58.
