Vase sculpture Millennium — collector's edition Chřibská

The Absolute Balance. The UH866 model is unanimously recognised by specialists as the most balanced and harmonious format in the "Millennium" series. Where other pieces may appear massive, the silhouette of the UH866 plays on a perfect tension between the airy elegance of its neck and the organic power of its sculpted base. It is the most accomplished piece in this commemorative collection. Chromatic Mastery: The Prestige Duo. The work is adorned with a gradient of Cognac and Light Pink, a historic chromatic alliance. These shades are statistically the most sought after and appreciated in Bohemian production for their ability to capture natural light. The "Cognac" (referenced "k" under the base) brings a deep amber warmth, while the Pink softens the sculptural lines, creating a rare chromatic contrast. A Piece of High Craftsmanship. Origin: Chřibská Sklo, the oldest glassworks in Europe (founded in 1414). Technique: Hand-blown glass, hot sculpting of the "wings" with tweezers, Sommerso technique for layering clear glass. Exceptional Mass: Nearly 3 kg (2.99 kg) of solid glass, offering a physical presence and brilliance that only high-end handcrafted pieces possess. Limited Edition: Produced exclusively between 1999 and 2002 to mark the turn of the millennium, making it a guaranteed rare collectible. Condition & Authenticity. Markings: Signed under the base with a diamond point: "UH866 4–8 k. Millennium". Condition: Personal collection. Impeccable condition, no chips, crystal of perfect clarity. Why acquire this work.
