Glassware Set, Jaroslav Svoboda, 1970s, Czechoslovakia
This decorative glassware set was designed by Jaroslav Svoboda and produced at the Škrdlovice glassworks in Czechoslovakia during the 1970s. It represents the distinctive layered glass production associated with Škrdlovice, combining functional forms with controlled color composition.
The set consists of six pieces: two vases of different heights, two bowls, an oval dish or ashtray, and a smaller bowl or dish. All elements are executed in amber-toned glass with white and orange layered details, creating a cohesive visual identity across the set.
The set is in very good vintage condition, with light patina consistent with age. Minor bubbles and inclusions are present from the original glassmaking process. No cracks, chips, or structural damage are observed; all pieces remain stable and functional.
