This sculptural Stromberg Swedish Mid-Century Faceted Crystal Vase originated in Sweden, circa 1950. The vase presents a tall cylindrical silhouette that tapers slightly toward a substantial multi-faceted base, and deep vertical facets run the full height of the body producing crisp linear reflections and a subtle prismatic play when viewed from different angles. The rim is smoothly polished and follows a gently scalloped outline that echoes the vertical fluting below. Crafted in thick optical glass with a faint cool blue tint, the form reads both weighty and refined as the heavy base grounds the piece while the elongated faceting lends an architectural lightness and a sculptural presence. The clarity of the glass and the clean geometric cut facets emphasize the object’s mid-century Scandinavian restraint and its focus on materiality and craftsmanship. This vase remains an elegant example of postwar Swedish decorative glasswork and is suitable for display as a singular sculptural object or to hold cut florals. Its measured presence suits both restrained modern interiors and more eclectic settings, where the simple geometry provides a point of visual interest without overwhelming surrounding objects. The piece performs equally well as a singular statement on a mantel or as part of a carefully edited collection. Excellent Vintage Condition.
