The most stunning decorative ceramics from {name}

Egermann (Nový Bor) – “Marika” hand-blown twisted vase, light aquamarine – 30 cm
A classic piece of Bohemian studio glass from Egermann, Nový Bor (Czech Republic), shaped in the long tradition of the region’s glassmaking excellence. Nový Bor and its surroundings have been one of Europe’s most important centres for decorative glass for generations—supplying art glass, design objects and export pieces known for clarity, colour work and refined hand craftsmanship.
Historical & cultural background
Bohemian glass is admired worldwide because it combines high technical skill with a strong sense of design. In the 20th century, Czech glass became especially sought-after for its modern silhouettes and optical play—pieces that look minimal from afar, yet reveal complexity up close. Egermann belongs to that lineage: a name associated with Czech export-quality decorative glass, where colour and form are meant to interact with light and architecture.
The “Marika” shape is part of that design language—an elegant, tall profile created to be timeless rather than seasonal. It is the kind of vase that works in a historic interior, but also feels perfectly at home in a clean, modern space.
Design & craftsmanship
This vase is hand-blown and twisted (“tocený”), a technique where the hot glass is rotated to create flowing spiral lines. The result is not just a visual pattern—it is a sculptural movement “frozen” in glass.
Twisted optic / spiral body: dynamic, flowing lines that catch reflections from every angle
Light aquamarine tone: airy, fresh colour that enhances transparency and gives a “water-like” glow
Balanced proportions: tall, slightly tapered silhouette with a clean rim—strong presence without heaviness
Handmade character: each example shows subtle individuality typical for hand-formed Bohemian glass
