This is a Czechia Crystal Bohemia cut floral pattern vase in rich ruby red, made in 1970. A deep cranberry overlay is wheel‑cut to reveal clear leaves, blossoms, and a butterfly that sparkle in the light. Thick walls and a weighted base give it the confident heft of true Bohemian crystal. Polished cuts are crisp; the surface shows only gentle, well‑kept signs of age. A mid‑century vintage accent that adds bold color and charm anywhere.

Bohemia crystal from Czechia has been prized for centuries for its clarity, resonance, and precise hand cutting, with workshops clustered around Nový Bor and Karlovy Vary. Ruby red like this is created by casing clear crystal with a gold‑tinted layer, then cutting back the red to form the pattern—a labor‑intensive technique collectors love. In the 1970s, many pieces were exported under the Bohemia Glass label during the Cold War, and hand‑cut ruby examples are scarcer than clear ones today. Value depends on color depth, symmetry, sharpness of cuts, and any surviving label. Hand wash only and keep out of strong sun to protect the color. Pieces from this era feel solid, ring brightly, and show excellent craftsmanship by cutters.
