The 'Krokus' cup and saucer, designed by Wincenty Potacki for the Ćmielów Porcelain Factory in the 1960s, is a classic example of Polish modernism. Crafted from fine porcelain in a cool, pastel green with a soft satin-matte finish, the set features a minimalist cylindrical cup with a subtle outward rim and a slender gold-trimmed handle. Regularly spaced geometric gold motifs, each with a delicate crosshatch mesh pattern, adorn both the cup and saucer, while thin gilded lines frame the edges. The saucer has a classic round form, its white, glossy center providing a striking contrast to the green surround and gold rim. The porcelain surface is smooth and without chips or cracks; original gold ornamentation retains its lustre. There are no signs of restoration or intensive use—overall, the set is preserved in very good, original condition.The pastel green hue and geometric gold patterns evoke the atmosphere of 1960s Poland—a time when everyday rituals were celebrated through visually light, modern forms. 'Krokus' seems to narrate stories of calm Sunday gatherings, shared coffee, and the quiet delight of well-considered design. The porcelain embodies restrained, mid-century elegance: an object shaped for function, yet attentive to subtle decorative details. The gold accents reflect the morning light, capturing the optimism and understated
