About the Item
A Blaze of Glamour: Bohemian Art Deco "Tango" Glasses,
Loetz or Harrach: The Golden Age of Czech Glass, 1920s
This stunning set of six Art Deco glasses epitomizes the bold, high-contrast aesthetic known as "Tango Glass," a style that defined Bohemian (Czech) glass production in the 1920s. With their vibrant color and geometric silhouette, these glasses capture the dynamism and sophisticated glamour of the jazz age.
Each glass is masterfully shaped like a delicate, fiery red tulip, providing a striking pop of color that was intentionally created to contrast with the period's subdued interiors. The tulip-shaped bowl sits atop a beautifully formed black stem with a knop detail, which expands to a broad, stable black foot. This sharp pairing of colors—the vivid orange-red and the deep black—is the signature of Tango Glass.
Historical Context: The Rise of Tango Glass
Tango Glass was a short-lived but impactful movement, flourishing primarily in Czechoslovakia after World War I. Named for the passionate and dramatic dance that was sweeping Europe, the style favored simple, modernist forms and intense, unadorned colors like red, orange, yellow, and black.
These pieces are typically attributed to leading Bohemian manufacturers of the period, such as Loetz Witwe or Harrach Glassworks. These factories moved away from the complex, iridescent surfaces of Art Nouveau and embraced the clarity and strength of Art Deco design. Given their bold, elegant design and exceptional craftsmanship, these glasses would have been prized items, perfect for serving cocktails or liqueurs in an upscale 1920s setting.
