The glass transitions from a deep emerald green rim into a soft pinkish violet body, creating a vivid colour contrast that changes depending on the light. The heavy casing and internal colour layers create a fluid, almost molten appearance, while the pulled lobes and internal optical ridges give the piece a dynamic sense of movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of expressive form was characteristic of the post-war Czech studio glass movement, where designers such as Hospodka pushed industrial glass production toward more artistic and sculptural forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePieces from this period of Chřibská production are now highly sought after by collectors of Czech modernist art glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: 7 3\/4 inches\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: approximately 6 3\/4 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e6 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChřibská Glassworks (Borské sklo), Czechoslovakia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigner\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJosef Hospodka (1923–1989)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOK 104\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCirca 1956\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCased art glass in violet and green\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: In very good condition with no pronounced wear, chips or cracks.
