This is a sculptural vase designed by Vlasta Vobornikova for Czech / North Bohemia art glass Studio Miracle.
The vase is of tapering conical / spire form, executed in cased and satin-frosted ruby red glass over a heavy clear crystal foot, mounted with applied silvered metal overlay.
The piece combines optical internal bubble work with architectural metal ornament — characteristic of late 20th-century Czech studio production.
