The 'Łódź' coffee set is a hallmark of late 1970s Polish modernist design, conceived by Andrzej Szadkowski and produced by the Resovia manufactory in Rzeszów. The set consists of three pieces—a pot (height 13 cm), sugar bowl (8.5 cm), and creamer (5.7 cm)—all rendered in a cool, silvery tone of plated brass. The design is defined by striking contrasts: each vessel features a monumental, spherical body paired with sharply angular rectangular handles and pronounced spouts. The lids are topped with spherical knobs, echoing the main profile and reinforcing the sculptural quality. All surfaces are polished and mirror-like, completely free of ornamentation; the set is preserved in very good condition, with a gentle, authentic patina and minor traces of use.This set channels the voice of Poland’s late communist avant-garde: the vessels resemble miniature sculptures where modernist explorations of form meet daily functionality. The interplay of geometric curves and crisp lines speaks to an era when designers sought a new visual language—direct, architectural, and symbolically resonant with the ship form that inspired the set’s name. The metallic sheen, subtly mellowed by patina, evokes the period’s fascination with material and light, so typical of 1970s Polish modernism.The 'Łódź' coffee set can be displayed on a low sideboard of dark wood or a
