ABOUT PRODUCTID 24352
This ikebana bowl from Chodzież, produced in the 1960s by the Chodzież Porcelain Factory, represents the aesthetics of Polish mid-century tableware design. Its construction features a low, wide form with a gently sloping profile and a centrally elevated, perforated section. The interior is finished in a deep, glossy black, contrasting with the smooth, matte off-white exterior. A distinctive hand-applied black linear pattern animates the off-white band on the rim, introducing movement and a touch of artisanal character. The bowl is made of porcelain stoneware, balancing a lustrous interior glaze with a subdued exterior surface. The base bears the factory mark and “MADE IN POLAND” signature, confirming its provenance. The piece is preserved in very good condition, with no signs of damage or restoration.This bowl evokes the spirit of Polish modernism in the 1960s, when utilitarian design embraced geometric simplicity and striking contrasts. The deep black interior reflects the postwar fascination with pure form, while the hand-drawn lines on the rim recall the pursuit of individuality within mass production. It seems to echo the era’s narrative—of gatherings around the table, of artistic experimentation in everyday objects, and of the growing confidence of the Polish school of design.The bowl can serve as a central decorative piece on a dining or living room table, especially effective on a light, minimalist surface. It may be paired with other Polish modernist ceramics, simple glassware, or sculptural vases to emphasize its graphic qualities. The piece will work well in a mid-century modern context but also
