On an elegant console, a minimalist sideboard, or in a sophisticated reception area, this signed studio glass vase by Heiner Düsterhaus immediately catches the eye. Not loud or flashy, but with a quiet sculptural power that brings peace, refinement, and connection to an interior.
With its slender upward form of 12 x 12 x 31.5 cm, this exceptional glass creation exudes pure elegance. The organically shaped base flows almost like a movement upwards into the glass, giving the object a different silhouette from every angle. This is not a classic vase, but a refined art object where form, light, and craftsmanship merge.
The subtle color transitions in purple, lilac, blue, and silver tones create an almost dreamy appearance. Fine horizontal line structures enhance the depth of the glass, while the iridescent, pearlescent underside gives the object a luxurious glow. Depending on the light, the vase constantly changes character—a typical feature of high-quality German studio glass from the 1980s–1990s.
Heiner Düsterhaus belongs to the important post-war German studio glass movement, in which artists re-approached glass as an artistic and sculptural medium. His work is known for combining technical perfection with poetic design. The signature at the bottom confirms the authenticity of this special object and makes it extra interesting for collectors of modern European art glass.
At De Tuin Der Kunsten, we consciously choose objects that do more than decorate. They bring harmony, character, and personality to a space. This vase creates a connection between light, material, and architecture, making an interior feel softer, calmer, and more refined.
This is not decoration. This is an energy object.
This sculptural glass vase comes into its own beautifully in a residential interior, but also in a professional context such as an executive office, stylish meeting room, practice, or hotel lobby. It radiates class without being aloof—an object for people who consciously choose authenticity and curated beauty.
