Product description
This exquisite Bubble Glass Vase, attributed to Prof. Wilhelm Braun-Feldweg and crafted by Hirschberg in Germany during the 1960s, is a stunning representation of the Space Age design era. While not signed, its attribution is based on reliable sources.
The Space Age design movement emerged in the mid-20th century, characterized by futuristic, avant-garde aesthetics that reflected the optimism and fascination with space exploration during that era. This vase encapsulates the essence of this design movement with its bold, innovative form and vibrant wine-red colour.
The vase stands at a height of 26 cm, with dimensions of 10 cm in width and depth, making it a substantial piece of art. Its weight of approximately 1330g adds to its sense of quality and craftsmanship.
Notably, this vintage item is in remarkably good condition, free from defects, and only exhibiting minor traces of use. The age-related patina adds character and authenticity to the piece, giving it a unique vintage appeal.
Colored glass was a favoured material during the Space Age era for its ability to capture and refract light, enhancing the futuristic feel of the designs. This vase's wine-red colour is not only visually striking but also evokes a sense of luxury and sophistication.
As a collector's item, this Bubble Glass Vase by Wilhelm Braun-Feldweg for Hirschberg represents not only the iconic design of its time but also a piece of history. Its enduring allure and exceptional condition make it a valuable addition to any mid-century modern or vintage design collection. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of Space Age design history.
