A collaboration between one of the oldest operating glassworks in the world and the family-run glass studio Ladislav Ševčík Bohemia Crystal
The Klaris collection of glasses featuring the Prismatic cut design, created by the Ladislav Ševčík Bohemia Crystal family glass studio in collaboration with one of the oldest operating glassworks in the world - You can see the Harrachov Glassworks as part of the summer festival of glass, jewelry, and costume jewelry at Café Bar Praha right in the heart of Liberec, on Edvard Beneš Square!
The exhibition Crystal Reflections presents the Klaris collection of glasses with Prismatic cutwork, created by the family-run glass studio Ladislav Ševčík Bohemia Crystal in collaboration with one of the oldest operating glassworks in the world—the Harrachov Glassworks.
The Klaris collection is based on clean, timeless shapes that highlight both the material itself and the precision of the handcrafted workmanship. The blown glass from the Harrachov glassworks is followed by the hand-cut Prismatic decoration. The original motif consists of delicate matte cuts that diffuse light into subtle reflections and create a contrast between the shine of smooth crystal and the texture of the cut surface.
The collection’s unique festival presentation showcases the interplay of two traditional glassmaking techniques and two perspectives on contemporary Czech glass, from working with molten glass to the final details of the cut decoration. The result is a collection that combines artisanal precision, minimalist design, and a sensitivity to light.
The installation is located in the Café Bar Praha in Liberec, on the square next to City Hall, where the atmosphere of the historic center naturally blends with contemporary design, culture, and social gatherings. The café is part of the historic Art Nouveau Hotel Praha building on Železná Street, but the entrance is directly off Dr. E. Beneš Square.
