Czech Borske Sklo purple gold & white striped vase. Tall art glass tapering cylinder. 1950s/1960s vintage Bohemian/Sklo Union. Metallic plum

A striking deep purple with gold and white striped art glass vase, circa 1950s to 1970s mid century vintage. By Borske Sklo (Czechoslovakia), it is a simple tall tapering cylindrical shape, wider at the bottom and narrower at the rim.

It's a tall statement piece with great vivid stripes (the gold is highly reflective). The base glass is a deep purple plum, almost black, with metallic gold gilding and white enamel painted stripes around it. It has a flat polished rim.

It's in excellent condition - these offer suffer with wear to the stripes from washing, but this is a very good example with very good banding. Rim is great with no nibbles, no obvious scratches to the body, etc.

A decent 31cm tall x 9.7cm wide base (7cm wide at the rim) - would hold a few tall statement stems if used. The purple is a harder to find colour way and this is a fab example. (Photos taken in artificial winter light).
