ABOUT PRODUCTID 11540
The Karol cup and saucer set from Chodzież is an example of Polish porcelain from the 1970s, where a soft, warm pastel yellow covers the upper portion of the cup and the outer rim of the saucer. The embossed geometric texture on the yellow surfaces introduces subtle play of light and adds visual depth. The lower part of the cup and the center of the saucer are creamy white, offering a gentle contrast to the yellow. Gold floral decorations appear as a band encircling the cup and as a ring on the saucer; these details are slightly worn in places, indicating age and use. The handle is slender, gently curved, and the glossy finish highlights the refinement and proportions of the design. The set is in very good vintage condition, with only minor traces of use and no cracks or chips.This porcelain echoes the spirit of the 1970s, when Polish design sought its own identity amid European trends. The geometric texture and pastel yellow evoke the atmosphere of daily rituals—each cup recalls mornings at the kitchen table, with golden accents bearing witness to everyday conversations and moments of calm. The worn gilding lends authenticity, as if the porcelain itself is telling stories of past gatherings and the small gestures repeated through the decades.The set can be displayed on an oak sideboard or in a glass-fronted cabinet within a mid-century modern-inspired living room. It pairs well with other pastel dishes or vintage glassware, as well as handwoven napkins and retro decorations. For a contemporary contrast, it may be combined with minimalist ceramics or a modern tray, creating an intimate nook for afternoon tea.
