AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This vintage glass bowl by Hans Jürgen Richartz is a coveted collector’s item of the so-called Richartz Art Collection, crafted in the 1970s for the renowned Mathildenhütte in Solingen. It is regarded as a prime example of the organic Mid-Century and Postmodern glass—transparent design of that era.

The bowl captivates with its characteristic, interwoven color play of fine turquoise with green-brown accents. Through the transparency of the glass, the optical effect changes depending on the incident light and the viewing angle.

The wavy, organic silhouette ("Freeform") with the curved rim gives the hand-blown art glass a flowing dynamism.
At the bottom or directly in the clear stand base there is a hand-engraved signature ("Richartz Art Collection") which guarantees the piece’s authenticity.
The object is in impeccable condition.

It is packaged with the utmost care and shipping is insured.
