ABOUT PRODUCTID 11544
This porcelain cup and saucer set from Poland, dating to the 1970s, is a representative example of mid-century modern export design produced by the Wałbrzych porcelain manufactory. The set features a marbled, irregular composition of colors—shades of purple, lavender, white, and subtle pink-beige accents blend seamlessly across the glossy surface. The cup's interior and its entire geometric handle are coated in gleaming gold, emphasizing its export-oriented character. The saucer mirrors the cup's marbled pattern, maintaining visual and textural consistency. The porcelain is smooth and finely crafted, with no visible cracks or chips; only minor wear on the gilding and rims is present, consistent with the set’s age. The set is preserved in very good vintage condition, with no signs of restoration.The form of this cup tells the story of Polish design in the 1970s, when even everyday objects became vessels for artistic expression and export ambition. The radiant gilding on the interior and handle evokes the spirit of an era that, despite economic constraints, managed to achieve a global standard in aesthetics and craftsmanship. The marbled pattern, created using the tampon printing technique, suggests a sense of artistic freedom—balancing control with spontaneity—while the geometric handle reflects the modernist belief in the power of form.This set would suit interiors inspired by mid-century modern style, serving either as a collectible accent on an open shelf or as a functional element in a living room table setting. It can be paired with simple ceramics in neutral colors to highlight the vibrancy of the marbled palette, or with minimalist metal and glass accessories to emphasize the gilded details. Combining it with a classic coffee tray or a modern sideboard in natural veneer would allow light to play off the porcelain’s glossy surface and golden accents.
