ABOUT PRODUCTID 18461
This set of six vintage crystal dessert plates, produced by the Hortensja Glassworks in Poland during the 1930s, is rooted in the Art Deco tradition of the interwar period. Made from clear, colorless crystal glass with a glossy, high-shine finish, each plate features a subtle, scalloped edge forming a floral outline and an intricately cut starburst motif at the center. The plates are moderately shallow with balanced proportions; their smooth surface and refined faceting along the rim reflect meticulous craftsmanship. The transparent clarity of the glass amplifies light, creating a distinctive interplay of reflections. The plates are preserved in very good condition: no chips or cracks are present, with only minimal traces of use, and all elements remain original and unrestored.These pre-war crystal plates evoke an era when everyday moments were marked by a sense of ritual. The floral rim and geometric star motif speak to Art Deco's balance of organic inspiration and early modern formality. The transparency and delicacy of the material suggest a crystalline clarity, as if the plates carried echoes of gatherings where light, conversation, and desserts converged in gestures of hospitality.The set would be at home in a historically inspired or eclectic collector’s interior. It could be paired with period porcelain tableware, nickel-plated metal accents, or textiles featuring geometric Art Deco patterns. Placing the plates on a mirrored tray or against a dove-grey cloth would enhance their transparency and refractive play. Complemented by a crystal decanter or silver sugar bowl, they would serve equally well at a formal gathering or an intimate coffee moment.
