ABOUT PRODUCTID 21915
This Polish commemorative desk model from the 1970s embodies vintage craftsmanship, where the simplicity of form meets expressive symbolism. The metal airplane features a geometric, streamlined silhouette in cool, matte silver with a subtle aged patina, mounted on a rectangular base made of dark, deeply stained wood with a semi-matte finish. The base is adorned with an engraved metal plaque reading 'Pamiątka z wojska' (Souvenir from the army), accompanied by a motif of an eagle's head and oak leaves, while the corners are reinforced with silver-toned metal fittings. Visible metal fasteners and a gently curved support rod emphasize the piece’s solidity and practical construction. The model remains in very good vintage condition: minor scratches and signs of use are present, but the structure is stable with no significant repairs or modern alterations.This object speaks with the voice of the 1970s, an era fascinated by progress and technology. The metallic sheen of the airplane evokes dreams of flight, while the engraved plaque recalls moments of recognition and military ceremony. The gentle patina and subtle traces of age transform this piece from mere decoration into a witness of history, infused with the atmosphere of offices, studies, and collectors’ shelves of decades past.It introduces a distinct accent to a home office, library, or desktop in a mid-century modern, industrial, or classic interior. It could be combined with other memorabilia, brass accessories, or minimalist wood and metal organizers. The model would work well on a shelf with aviation books, beside a lamp with a geometric base, or among maps and globes, cultivating a collector’s mood and subtly expressing the owner’s passion.
