A jug designed by Kazimierz Gorski for HSG Tarnów is an example of Polish glass design from the 1970s, made of double-layered glass. The dominant colour is deep cobalt, which subtly transitions to a lighter shade at the base, complemented by a shiny, almost mirror-like finish. The transparent handle and decorative element made of the same material, enriched with a series of glass bubbles, contrast with the organic shape of the vessel. The form—bulbous at the base, narrowing into a slender neck with a gently flared spout—is typical of Polish designs from this period, where bold colour and playful details meet functionality. Small air bubbles, characteristic of hand-blown glass, are visible on the surface. The jug is in good condition: no cracks or chips, with minimal signs of use typical for its age. This jug speaks with the voice of a decade in which Polish glass gained international recognition for its bold forms and colours. The saturated cobalt exudes strength, while the organic curves and bubbly relief decoration reflect the creative freedom and optimism of the 1970s. The glass surface catches the light, shimmering as if to capture the pulsating energy of those years—a time when every household item was meant not only to serve but also to please the eye and stimulate the imagination. The jug can be placed on a dining table or a console in the living room—it works as a vessel for serving drinks or as a decorative solitaire. It looks good paired with simple white ceramics or glass in contrasting shades. Mid-century modern, eclectic, or collector's interiors will gain a distinctive, colourful accent thanks to it. It is worth combining it with metal details, natural wood, or fabrics in neutral colours to bring out the depth of blue and the organic lines of the jug.
