An exceptional Czech Art Deco glass vase from the C.I.O. (Czech International Office) collection, dating to the 1920s–1930s. Crafted from richly colored Bohemian glass and finished with striking hand-decorated geometric motifs, this piece exemplifies the precision and boldness of early 20th-century Central European design.
The flared form and stylized patterning reflect the influence of Cubism and Constructivism within the Czech decorative arts movement of the interwar period. Vases from this era — particularly from the C.I.O. line — are celebrated for their collectible status and their role in bringing Continental Art Deco into the applied arts.
This vase makes an impactful statement whether displayed as a standalone sculpture or incorporated into a curated Art Deco interior.
