The 'June' coffee cup, designed by Wincenty Potacki and produced by Ćmielów in Poland in the 1960s, is crafted from high-gloss porcelain featuring a cool, pastel blue surface and a geometric fan-shaped white pattern, delicately outlined with gold. Gilding also highlights the rim of the cup’s interior and the handle, emphasizing the balanced proportions and modernist character. The piece is distinguished by its clean lines, restrained color palette, and the smooth, glazed texture typical of Polish mid-century modern porcelain. The base of the cup and the center of the saucer remain white, offering visual balance. This export edition bears the original Ćmielów mark and is preserved in very good condition, with all gilded details intact and no damage.This cup captures the spirit of an era when Polish porcelain was discovering its own modern voice. The 'June' pattern speaks of postwar optimism and an interest in pure form: the pastel blue evokes the freshness of early morning light, while the gold lines add a refined note to everyday rituals. The dynamic yet harmonious fan-like stripes suggest movement and lightness, as if the cup itself invites a celebration of the moment, not just the act of drinking coffee. Though modest in scale, it carries with it the story of Polish design at the height of modernism.The cup can be paired with other pieces from the 'June' set or displayed alone on a light-colored surface to emphasize its chromatic accent. It works well in both a classic mid-century modern kitchen and an eclectic collector’s interior, where vintage porcelain plays a central role. It may be combined with ceramic vessels in neutral tones, allowing the geometric pattern and gilding to draw attention. Alternatively, it can be set among glassware and muted metal accents to highlight its modernist heritage and subtle elegance.
