Novelties in Metropolis Collection
The Metropolis collection, inspired by post-war modernist architecture and the rhythm of the city, is now expanding to include three new color variants. These new shades—Aquamarine, Cigar, and Amber—further develop the collection's architectural character, offering fresh interpretations of urban aesthetics in cut crystal.
Monumenta Vase in Aquamarine
The most striking addition to the portfolio, introducing a new signature color to the Rückl range. Its cool, blue-green tone evokes modernist materials and the shifting reflections of city lights. A key source of inspiration was the iconic design of the Prague Metro—a symbol of modern infrastructure and urban motion that perfectly resonates with the architectural spirit of the entire Metropolis collection.
Bruta Vase in Cigar
Its deep, smoky hue recalls the raw materiality of Brutalist architecture—concrete, shadow, and the industrial atmosphere of urban structures
Icona Vase in Amber
This piece introduces a warm, amber tone inspired by the glow of the setting sun reflecting off urban facades and the glass surfaces of modern architecture.

Rückl X CAMP
We first presented the new colour variants to the public on March 30 at Prague's CAMP – Centre for Architecture and Metropolitan Planning during the evening Glass and Art in Post-War Architecture. The event connected the world of architecture, art, and contemporary Czech glassmaking, offering a look at how traditional crystal can enter into a dialogue with modern architecture. Special guests included Vladimir518 and Kateřina Handlová. Entry was free upon registration.
We thank everyone who attended the event.
