Description

The Drop Shaped Hand-Blown Vase is a distinctive creation by Aleksandra Zawistowska and her team of adept craftsmen. Each vase is handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that every piece is a unique expression of the art of glassblowing.

This vase is a product of an experimental and innovative approach to glass crafting. The team employs natural materials such as stones and ceramics in the blowing process, resulting in a rough, organic shape that captures the essence of natural beauty. This technique gives the vase its distinctive texture and form, distinguishing it from conventional glassware.

Under the Szkło brand, this vase represents a fusion of Aleksandra Zawistowska’s passion for deconstructive design and a celebration of individual expression. The creation of each vase goes beyond mere production; it is a performance of artistic creation, showcasing the skill and artistic vision of the team. Embracing the concept of ‘perfection in imperfection,’ this vase highlights and celebrates the natural imperfections and unique characteristics of hand-blown glass.

Due to its handmade nature each piece will differ slightly in shape with approximately the same overall dimensions. The Drop Shaped Vase is not just a functional item; it is a piece of sculptural art that adds an element of organic elegance to any setting. It’s an ideal choice for those who appreciate the beauty and unique storytelling of handcrafted glass objects.

Wash by hand. The sculpture may contain remains of sand, stones and wood used to shape the object. Sculpture may contain air bubbles, sharp edges and scorch marks due to its creation process.

About Szkło Studio Visit Showroom →

Szkło [Polish: glass, pronounced /shkwo/] are functional glass sculptures and collectible design objects, hand-blown by Aleksandra Zawistowska with a team of craftsmen. Szkło is a celebration of materials and the glassblowing process, with no two pieces alike. Szkło is a combination of an imaginary approach, years of craftsmanship experience and an admiration for the raw material. Szkło stems from challenging the conventional glassblowing process, turning it into a playful experiment instead. As no traditional moulds are used in the process, the sculptures assume coincidental, spontaneous forms, often challenging the notion of beauty. The glassblowing process becomes as important as the final form itself. The mission of Szkło is to push the boundaries of functionality and material characteristics, turning the simple act of eating and drinking into an experience. It celebrates uniqueness and diversity. It is an invitation to limit our possessions and enjoy the quality of individual objects instead. The designs are shaped by materials, such as stacked bricks, and chunks of wood or stones. The remains of these natural materials are often captured between layers of glass and visible in the finished sculptures. Aleksandra Zawistowska is an artist, designer, working in many fields and techniques, founder of Szkło Studio. Her practice is a combination of a passion for raw, natural materials with an element of spontaneity in design. Her fascination with glass stems from its contradictions - its transformation from hot, liquid magma into a brittle sculpture. She started working with glass while studying at Sandberg Instituut, which she graduated from in 2022. She also works as a sculptor with metal, stone and ceramics.
