ABOUT PRODUCTID 19567
This round tray, crafted from rosaline glass by Huta Hortensja in Poland during the 1950s, exemplifies utilitarian design at the crossroads of late Art Deco and early modernism. The tray is formed from thick, evenly transparent pink glass with a soft, powdery hue; its broad rim is slightly more saturated in tone, visually enhancing the perfect circle. The absence of handles or decorative motifs emphasizes its minimalist, functional intent, while the semi-gloss, satiny surface diffuses light with understated subtlety. The proportions are balanced, and the use of durable pressed glass ensures both utility and visual coherence. The tray is preserved in good condition with pinpoint marks and light usage scratches characteristic for the period, yet free from major chips or cracks.This object carries the narrative of Polish glassmaking in the mid-20th century: its form quietly echoes a time when simplicity took precedence over decoration and the material itself became a focal point of design. The softly luminous pink glass diffuses light with an almost nostalgic whisper, evoking the optimism of the postwar years and the atmosphere of homely gatherings. The thick rim offers a subtle nod to its era—ornament gives way to a precise sense of shape, with surface and color serving as decoration in their own right.The tray can be paired with neutral ceramics or glass in contrasting hues to highlight its gentle rose tone. It serves equally well as a fruit or dessert platter or as a standalone decorative object on a wooden or marble-topped console, sideboard, or dining table. It would harmonize in interiors inspired by the 1950s, mid-century modern schemes, or contemporary minimalist arrangements—especially when placed alongside subdued textiles, polished metal, or fine wood.No additional technical details are provided. Rosaline glass should be cleaned with a soft cloth, avoiding substances that might affect its shine or color.
