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_10

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

The vase features a gently expanding conical form, narrowing elegantly toward the rim to create a refined and beautifully balanced silhouette. Its clean and uncluttered design reflects the Bauhaus philosophy, where functionality and beauty exist in harmony.

The glass is finished in a soft blue-green tone that gradually deepens toward the base, creating a subtle and atmospheric gradation. As light passes through the thicker glass, delicate shadows emerge, giving depth and richness to the otherwise minimal form.

Its slender yet stable silhouette makes it ideal as a bud vase, beautifully accommodating wildflowers or small branches with understated elegance. Even without flowers, the vase functions naturally as a sculptural object, while the calm vintage coloration adds a refined presence to any interior.

Founded in 1853, WMF is one of Germany’s most celebrated manufacturers, known for producing high-quality metalware and glass objects throughout its long history. This piece is a fine example of 1950s modernist design and beautifully reflects Wilhelm Wagenfeld’s sophisticated aesthetic.

There are slight signs of age-related wear, but overall the vase remains in very good condition. Carrying the atmosphere of mid-century modern design, this vintage glass vase also makes a highly appealing collectible piece.

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.
