ABOUT PRODUCTID 20430
This Pop Art porcelain candlestick, produced by the Steatyt factory in Katowice around 1960, presents a geometric, dynamic silhouette: three slender arms rise from a substantial arched base, evoking the aesthetics of mid-century modern and space age design. The surface of the cool white, glazed porcelain is tactile and richly textured—covered with a raised, irregular pebble-like pattern that adds depth and visual intrigue. Distinctive hand-applied gold lines trace the contours, accentuating the irregularity of the form, while small red and orange dots are arranged in playful, asymmetrical clusters. The candlestick is seamless in construction, and its proportions—20 cm high, 26.5 cm long, and 8 cm wide—emphasize its sculptural quality. Condition is very good, with no chips, cracks, or signs of restoration; all decorative elements are original.This object embodies the bold, experimental spirit of 1960s Polish design—a period when utility items became vehicles for modernist ideas and artistic gestures. Steatyt porcelain, once associated with technical industry, here becomes a medium for creative expression: the luminous white and vivid color accents reflect the decade’s optimism, while gold lines guide the eye across the dynamic surface like traces of an abstract sketch. Its pattern and texture conjure the rhythm of city life and the forward-looking energy of the era, when even the smallest decorative objects took on sculptural presence and graphic clarity.The candlestick could be displayed on a low, light wood sideboard or a glass
