Description

Art in Emerald Hues: Mucha Vase with Sandblasted Relief

This vase represents a masterpiece of modern Czech glassmaking, paying deep homage to the work of Alphonse Mucha. The vase’s distinctive shape highlights its technically demanding craftsmanship, where traditional craftsmanship meets the vision of designer František Šebesta.

A Play of Textures: Sandblasting and Polishing

What sets this vase apart is its textural diversity:

Sandblasted relief: The central figure of a woman and delicate floral motifs are rendered using the sandblasting method. This technique gives the decoration a soft, velvety matte surface that stands out from the body of the vase and appears exceptionally three-dimensional.

Grinding technique: The vase is made of green overlaid crystal. The artist hand-grinds the top colored layer down to the transparent, colorless crystal. This creates radiant glimpses and geometric contrasts that, combined with the green color, resemble a gemstone set in glass.

Design by František Šebesta – Art Glass

Every stroke of the grinding wheel and every detail of the sandblasted decoration is subordinated to the overall harmony of the piece. František Šebesta has succeeded in translating the ethereal quality of Art Nouveau into solid crystal, which makes a dominant yet light impression in any interior. The vase is signed by the artist, confirming its authenticity and artistic value.

Why choose this vase?

Thanks to the combination of green tones and clear surfaces, the vase is exceptionally photogenic and changes its character depending on the light. The vase offers two distinct sides—while one side features a detailed sandblasted portrait, the other side impresses with the purity of its polished surfaces, allowing you to change the look of your display to suit your mood. It is the ideal choice for those seeking a prestigious gift or wishing to enrich their private collection.
