ABOUT PRODUCTID 11507
The Helena sugar bowl, produced in Poland in the 1970s, exemplifies mid-century modern utilitarian porcelain with a distinctive conical silhouette, broad base, and gently tapering sides. Its surface is adorned with a marbled glaze in warm shades of beige, cream, and subtle orange, finished to a high gloss that reflects light elegantly. Two elongated, upward-curving handles and a lid knob, all coated in metallic gold glaze, provide a decorative accent that echoes the modernist sensibility of the era. The construction is solid, with no cracks or chips, and the gold details are well-preserved with only minimal signs of use. Condition: very good, with no evidence of restoration or major damage.This sugar bowl embodies the spirit of a decade marked by exploration and boldness in Polish design: the marbled surface tells of a fascination with innovative glazing techniques, while the gold handles and lid knob evoke a hint of everyday luxury. The glossy porcelain catches the light like a summer morning, and the dynamic arrangement of colors reflects the experimental atmosphere of the 1970s, when every detail was intended to express the unique character of the table.The sugar bowl may be paired with cups or a teapot from the same series for a cohesive, vintage table setting, or it can stand alone—placed on a dark wooden tray among vessels with smooth surfaces or subtle metallic accents. It would suit mid-century modern arrangements, eclectic living rooms, or classic dining areas, where it could be combined with warm textiles and simple ceramics to highlight its decorative yet functional presence.
