ABOUT PRODUCTID 36620
The ikebana vase model 'ogród 538' is a 1963 design by Jan Sowiński, crafted at the Włocławek Faience Factory in Poland. Its distinctive, flattened disc form with a central cylindrical neck is a nod to modernist clarity, while the warm pastel yellow glaze lends the surface a vibrant, light-reflecting quality. The upper section is pierced with a regular pattern of small holes, surrounded by a subtle, irregular white band with a speckled motif. The glazed finish is smooth, with a gently textured area around the perforations. The base bears the 'Włocławek' factory mark, confirming the piece's provenance. The vase is preserved in very good condition, with no visible chips, cracks, or repairs.This object speaks to the optimistic spirit of the 1960s—a decade when Polish craftsmanship found a distinctive voice. The 'ogród 538' vase expresses the language of modernism: geometric simplicity paired with gentle ornamentation, while the perforations and softly blended white accent evoke a sense of lightness and openness to experimentation. It could tell a story of the era's fascination with the East and the poetic discipline of ikebana, where every detail serves the harmony of the whole.The vase may be paired with low, sprawling floral arrangements or a few select stems, emphasizing its flat profile and perforated detail. It would work well as a focal point on an oak console, flanked by ceramic figurines or minimalist prints. Interiors inspired by mid-century modern, eclectic vintage collections, or bright contemporary spaces could all benefit from its subtle nod to the Polish school of design.Dimensions: height 11.5 cm, diameter 26 cm. The vase is made of glazed faience. The listed price refers to a single piece.
