The Bohemian style, also known as Boho, emerged in the 1960s and 1970s as a reaction to the rigidity of conventional fashion. Characterized by an eclectic mix of cultural influences and relaxed aesthetic, Bohemian decor combines elements of ethnic, vintage and Mid-Century Modern styles.
This beautiful vintage 20th century italian opaline glass vase embodies the Bohemian ethos. With its bulbous iridescent form, the vessel features a voluminous body that tapers gently towards the base. An iridescent glaze gives the vase an almost bubble-like coloration. Devoid of handles and surface ornamentation, the white glass vase allows the nuanced hues and sheen of the material to take center stage. The interplay between the surface and light creates an ever-shifting display of color. Simple yet striking, this piece exemplifies Bohemian ideals of free-spirited and nonconformist style through its eclectic blend of art glass techniques and its ethereal, organic shape.
