ABOUT PRODUCTID 12724
This set of dessert plates from the iconic 'krople rosy' (dew drops, also known as asteroid) series, designed by Jan Drost for HSG Ząbkowice in the 1970s, includes one larger serving platter and six smaller, elongated oval dessert plates. Made entirely from clear, colorless glass, each piece features a uniform, raised bubble pattern covering the upper surface, with a glossy finish enhancing the three-dimensional, organic texture that is distinctive for this era. Smoothly rounded edges without visible seams indicate refined production and reflect Drost’s modernist approach: simple forms paired with a boldly tactile surface. This ensemble embodies the spirit of mid-century modern design as reimagined in late 20th-century Polish glassmaking. The set has been preserved in very good condition, showing no chips, cracks, discoloration, or noticeable signs of wear.The form of these plates evokes the experimental energy of the 1970s and echoes the ethos of the Polish glass design school, which favored explorations in texture and the play of light over ornate decoration. These pieces would tell stories of morning rituals in modernist interiors and moments of leisurely dessert, infusing everyday life with a sense of avant-garde artistry. Light refracts gently across the bubbled structure, casting ever-changing patterns—mirroring dew at sunrise or cosmic asteroids captured in glass.Today, this set could be paired with minimalist white porcelain or matte metal cutlery to highlight the contrast between the plates’ organic texture and more subdued materials. It would work well in classic modernist-inspired spaces or in relaxed, eclectic interiors that juxtapose vintage features with contemporary accents. The plates could provide a striking note on an oak dining table or pale linen tablecloth, while the large platter may serve as a decorative center in a glass cabinet or sideboard.
