Vintage Glass Flower Vase ヴィンテージ ガラスベース [ウィルヘルム・ワーゲンフェルド - WMF] SW_27

Produced in the 1950s by the renowned German manufacturer WMF, this glass vase was designed by Bauhaus-trained designer Wilhelm Wagenfeld.

This refined glass vase features a soft blue-grey tone that quietly spreads throughout the piece. The slightly smoky transparency catches the light with a gentle haze, creating a calm and understated atmosphere.

The form is composed of a slender cylindrical body with a gradual increase in thickness toward the base. Its clean, straight lines and subtly weighted lower section reflect Wagenfeld’s signature balance of functionality and refined simplicity.

The rim is finished with crisp precision, while the slightly thicker glass around the edge appears subtly darker, creating a delicate visual accent that sharpens the overall silhouette. The base carries a deeper tone and visual weight, giving the vase both practical stability and a balanced architectural presence.

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 proportion 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.
