ABOUT PRODUCTID 14017
This porcelain vase, crafted at the Ćmielów manufactory in Poland during the 1950s, features a slender, elongated profile with a subtly widening base and gently flared mouth—an embodiment of mid-century modern aesthetics that favor lightness and simplicity of form. The main color is a cool, pale blue, nuanced with soft gray undertones. The surface is adorned with fine, vertical lines in shades of blue and white, creating a dynamic yet understated pattern that maintains a smooth, glossy porcelain finish. The vase is preserved in excellent condition, free from visible wear, damage, or restoration, retaining its original clarity and execution.The contours of this piece reflect the postwar era in Polish design, an age when fresh, modernist impulses blended harmoniously with a sense of function and subtle ornament. The delicate, watercolor-like stripes emphasize the airy optimism and quiet restraint prevalent in the period, while the cool palette evokes the clarity of a morning light reflected off porcelain. Though modest in scale, the vase seems to speak of a time embracing new horizons, where modern ideals found their way into everyday domestic objects.Within an interior, this vase is equally at ease as part of a curated mid-century modern collection or standing alone in minimalist, light-flooded spaces. It may be combined with other period pieces—such as porcelain with geometric motifs, organic Murano glassware, or a pine sideboard with clean lines. The vase can also serve as a striking focal point against a neutral wall, paired with pastel textiles or a few single stems of delicate greenery, allowing its subtle decoration and refined silhouette to take center stage.
