ABOUT PRODUCTID 36655
This decorative porcelain platter from the 'Krzysztof' Tableware Factory in Wałbrzych is a notable example of 1950s Polish design, reflecting the spirit of mid-century modern aesthetics. Crafted from porcelain and adorned with an airbrushed and hand-finished abstract motif, the piece features dynamic, irregular stripes in glossy black, vivid red, white, and a subtle touch of yellow. The shiny surface enhances the vibrancy of the colors, while the textured white areas add a sense of movement and energy. Its round form (32 cm in diameter, 4 cm high) and shallow profile make it suitable both as a serving piece and a decorative accent. The underside bears the signature 'Wawel, made in Poland', confirming its authenticity and its roots in Poland’s porcelain tradition. The overall condition is very good, with no visible damage, chips, or signs of restoration.The platter’s form echoes the voice of postwar optimism: bold colors and abstract lines seem to narrate a time when Polish design was seeking new forms of expression. Each stripe and patch of color recalls a dance of light and movement, characteristic of the modernist experiments of the 1950s. The piece carries the atmosphere of a confident dialogue with the avant-garde, as if whispering about the desire for modernity amid a rebuilding everyday life.This object can be displayed atop a light wooden sideboard or a marble tabletop to highlight the depth of black and the vibrancy of its colors. It will also work well as a centerpiece on a dining table, surrounded by glassware and minimalist ceramic accessories. Interiors in the mid-century modern style, eclectic living rooms, or contemporary spaces with bold color accents will provide a natural backdrop. It can be combined with other Polish designs from the 1950s to create a cohesive, collectible composition.
