Created by designer Rudolf Jurnikl for the Sklo Union manufactory (Rudolfova Huť glassworks), this model embodies the clarity and boldness of the 1960s. \u003cbr\u003eIts structure is based on a precise modular repetition of faceted blocks, creating an optical sculpture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrutalist Brilliance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts bold geometry fits perfectly into the brutalist movement.

It is both mathematical and alive. Unlike many mid-century glass pieces, it does not seek to be decorative: it asserts itself through its structure. It is the type of piece one imagines on a minimalist office desk, between New York and London. \u003cstrong\u003eIt is a \"foundation\" piece for any serious collector of mid-century design.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInformation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufactory\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rudolfova Huť, Sklo Union group (Czech Republic)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rudolf Jurnikl (Attributed), C.1963 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod\u003c\/strong\u003e: Circa 1960-1970\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-clarity pressed art glass without the use of lead \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Height 27 cm | Width 7 cm x 7 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gallery Grade (Exceptional)  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.127 kg \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCube Vase by Rudolf Jurnikl 1963\u003cbr\u003eCertificate of Authenticity \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AUTRE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59768426004814,"sku":"DEC-MCM-1012","price":380.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/4959\/4958\/files\/rudolf-jurnikl-sklo-union-midcentury-brutalist-glass-vase_vase-verre-presse-monolithe-brutaliste-rudolf-jurnikl_7476HEROS.png?v=1787296489","url":"https:\/\/bgtgu2-fp.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/vase-architectural-cube-rudolf-jurnikl-sklo-union-1963","provider":"GALERIE POPINCOURT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
