It’s quite simply a marvelous example of exquisite Czechoslovakian pressed glass ready to grace your home with its impeccable presence. Vladislav Urban was born in 1937. He studied and graduated from Karel Stipl where he also studied with Frantisek Vizner. Both would go on to join Rudolf Jurnikl at Rudolfova Huta in 1958 where Vizner, Urban, & Jurnikl became a well-known trio with an unmistakable appearance in the Czechoslovakian pressed glass world. Mr. Urbans works were characterized by distinctive shapes, textures, and unique optic & geometric structures. In 1971 he was forced to retire from the artistic center in Teplice and would change direction to work in the furniture industry. Vladislav Urban passed away in 2022. Hermanova Hut, also known as Czech Glass Factory, was founded in 1907 for production of technical glassware that would eventually expand and include domestic glass. After 1945 the company became a major factory within the United Czech Glassworks and became part of Sklo Union in 1965. In 1992 the factory split into separate companies and the production at Hermanova Hut ceased in 2002. The other company changed names several times but is still in production today under the name Stolzle-Oberglas. Sklo Union was established in 1965 as a way to unite all Czech and Moravian glassworks producing pressed glass. It is a virtual gallery where individuals can visit and admire a phenomenal collection of Czechoslovakian and Moravian glassworks including vases & jardinieres, explore elite designers, and learn about the history of pressed glass and its evolution & change over time.
