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_26

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

This expressive glass vase features beautiful tonal variations within its clear blue glass. The color transitions from a transparent light blue to a deep cobalt tone toward the base, creating a sense of watery depth as it catches the light.

The form is based on a softly rounded, almost spherical silhouette, gently narrowing at the neck before opening subtly toward the rim. Delicate vertical undulations across the surface introduce a quiet sense of movement, adding an organic rhythm to the otherwise minimal form.

The vase beautifully balances Wagenfeld’s signature functional clarity with a rich appreciation for the material itself. While sculptural enough to stand alone as an object, it also works elegantly as a bud vase, adding a calm accent to any interior space.

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.
