Egermann Crystal Bowl, hand-formed hot-worked blue cobalt glass with a clear transition, diameter 40 cm, height 23 cm, weight 4.4 kg, made in Czechia by Egermann, dating from 1990–2000, in as new unused condition.
Description from the seller
Offered for auction is a monumental sculptural glass bowl by the renowned Czech glassmaker Egermann, an outstanding example of traditional Bohemian hot-worked crystal in a refined blue color tone.
This impressive piece is hand-formed directly from molten glass at high temperature and shaped freely without the use of molds. Its organic flowing form with elegantly raised arms gives the bowl a strong sculptural presence, reminiscent of waves, water movement, or blooming petals. From every angle, the object reveals a new line, reflection, and play of light.
The glass features a deep cobalt-blue rim smoothly transitioning into clear crystal, creating vivid cool reflections and beautifully emphasizing the true hutní (hot-worked) character of the glass. Thanks to its substantial weight and massive construction, the bowl feels exceptionally stable, valuable, and highly representative.
Each piece is a unique original. Minor variations in shape, internal structure, and color flow are natural and desirable characteristics of authentic handmade glass and a clear proof of craftsmanship.
With a diameter of approximately 40 cm and a weight of around 4.4 kg, this object is perfectly suited as:
• a luxury fruit bowl
• a centerpiece for a dining or conference table
• or a stand-alone collector’s sculpture
Egermann glass carries the historic legacy of Fridrich Egermann (1777–1864), one of the most influential figures in Bohemian glass history. For generations, the Egermann name has stood for innovation, artistic mastery, and international prestige. Today, original hot-worked Egermann pieces of this scale and quality are becoming increasingly rare.
