Produced in the 1950s by the renowned German manufacturer WMF, this glass vase was designed by Bauhaus-trained designer Wilhelm Wagenfeld.
This vintage glass vase features a beautiful gradation that transitions from a soft pale blue to a deep green tone. The upper section remains light and transparent, while the color gradually intensifies toward the stem and foot, creating calm shadows and a refined sense of depth.
The upper portion forms a gently flared cup-like silhouette that flows naturally into a narrowed stem below, creating an elegant and beautifully balanced composition. Though minimal in design, the graceful curves stand out clearly, reflecting Wagenfeld’s signature harmony of functional beauty and sculptural refinement.
Founded in 1853, WMF is one of Germany’s most celebrated manufacturers, known for producing exceptional design objects throughout its long history. This vase is a wonderful example of 1950s modernist design and offers an accessible way to appreciate Wagenfeld’s timeless aesthetic.
There are slight signs of age-related wear, but overall the vase remains in very good condition. Displayed alone or alongside other sizes and variations from the series, its subtle differences in form and balance can be beautifully appreciated.
Condition Notes:
Minor surface marks and extremely small scratches may be visible in places, though none detract from the overall beauty of the piece. With minimal signs of use, this remains a rare vintage collectible in exceptionally good condition.
