Art Deco Roses vase, orange pressed glass, Huta Laura, Poland, 1970s

A pressed glass vase from Huta Laura in Tarnów is an example of Polish utility glass from the 1970s, immersed in aesthetics inspired by the Art Deco movement. Made in a warm amber shade, it features a glossy surface and a play of light within the glass structure. The slender, cylindrical body is entirely covered with a repeating relief of roses, emphasizing the three-dimensional and decorative effect. The neck slightly widens, surrounded by a subtle, embossed ring-shaped decoration. The clarity of the glass and the depth of color, characteristic of the factory, give the item a distinct collector's value. Condition is very good – no visible damage, clean glass, shine preserved, minimal signs of age. The form of this vase evokes the narrative of 1970s architecture – solid yet full of light, with a love for geometric order and detailed patterns. The rose motif repeating around the body tells the story of how everyday life met artistic fantasy in Polish design – the universal symbolism of the flower fits into the language of the era's decor. The warm amber glass saturated with light recalls the sunny afternoons of the period – the intensity of the color and the play of reflections evoke a nostalgic tone of interiors from those years. The vase works best as a standalone accent on a light wood sideboard, where light brings out the depth of color. It can be combined with other Art Deco items – such as a geometric mirror or a ceramic platter – to create a harmonious vintage composition. In mid-century modern or contemporary minimalist interiors, it is worth pairing it with simple greenery or single branches to highlight the relief ornament of the glass, emphasizing its sculptural form.
