ABOUT PRODUCTID 4177
The 'Joanna' mocha set, designed by W. Potacki for the Karolina manufactory in Jaworzyna Śląska in the 1960s, is a porcelain set for six people. The ensemble includes a coffee pot (19 cm), sugar bowl (8 cm), creamer (10 cm), cups (height 5 cm, diameter 7 cm), and saucers (diameter 11.4 cm). The porcelain features an opalescent, pearly white glaze that reflects subtle pastel hues. Each piece is finished with thin, hand-painted gold lines along the rims, while the handles, spout, and finials are fully gilded. The surface is smooth and glossy, and the rounded, balanced forms are characteristic of 1960s modernism, with a subtle nod to Art Deco geometric motifs. The set is in excellent condition, showing no signs of use or damage. There is a sense of quiet afternoon stillness in this porcelain – light plays across the glaze, gently dispersing over the gold detailing. Each piece radiates calm and softness, and the gentle curves evoke the harmony central to postwar modernist design. The set, reserved in expression, subtly draws attention, as if inviting a pause for shared rituals and conversation over coffee. This set can be paired with simple, contemporary matte ceramics or glassware to create a contrast of textures and highlight the porcelain's sheen. It works well against light, pastel tablecloths or linen runners. It is worth combining with classic, light-toned wooden tables and accessories in gold or brass tones. The arrangement can be complemented with fresh flowers in white or cream, emphasizing the set’s character and creating a cohesive, tranquil atmosphere for coffee gatherings or festive desserts.
