ABOUT PRODUCTID 12594
The "Brydżówka" decanter exemplifies Polish utilitarian glass from the 1950s, produced by the renowned Hortensja glassworks. Created at the height of mid-century modern enthusiasm, it features a clear, colorless glass body with a lustrous finish and moderate thickness. The piece is adorned with hand-painted, vivid red stripes encircling the stopper, neck, shoulder, and base. Its most distinctive accent is the central decorative motif – four simplified, graphic playing cards (diamond, club, heart, spade) in contrasting black and red. Black outlines and solid color fields emphasize the lively, playful character of the vessel. The glass stopper echoes the red banding. The decanter is preserved in good collector's condition, with no visible major chips, losses, or restoration.The form of the 1950s "Brydżówka" evokes the optimism of the era – evenings spent around the table, sociable card games, and a wave of modern design meant to provide not only function but a sense of everyday joy. The card motif playfully references the boom in bridge gatherings, capturing a light, uninhibited spirit. The transparency of the glass paired with bold painted contrasts enlivens the ordinary, as if the decanter itself invites guests to join in, reflecting the hopeful mood of postwar Poland.This decanter would suit a contemporary relaxation area furnished with vintage shelving, or rest perfectly atop a restored mid-century modern bar cabinet or sideboard. It can be paired with minimalist glassware and straight-lined pieces from the same period to create a cohesive serving set for spirits or soft drinks. Ceramic coasters, brass accents, or geometric textiles would make fitting companions, highlighting the graphic motif and cheerful origins of this design.
