ABOUT PRODUCTID 4249
The Krokus saucer was designed by Wincenty Potacki and produced by ZPS Ćmielów in 1962. Crafted from porcelain with a smooth, glossy surface, it features a harmonious 14 cm form. The warm, muted pink serves as a backdrop for dynamic, asymmetrical white bands radiating from the center, intersected by fine overglaze gold lines. The central well for the cup remains white, while the rim is delicately gilded. The overall design reflects the mid-century modern aesthetic, with precise craftsmanship and attention to detail characteristic of the Krokus series. The saucer’s form evokes a sense of quiet movement—colors and lines on the porcelain surface seem to capture a fleeting moment of light scattered across a spring petal. The matte pink and subtle gilding create an atmosphere of daily ritual, where every element has significance. The design balances bold geometry with gentle color, turning the saucer into both a functional tableware piece and a marker of its time and era’s sensibility. The Krokus saucer may be paired with a matching cup from the same series or combined with simple white porcelain to highlight its color accents. It works well against a light linen tablecloth or on a minimalist tray made of pale wood. It could be complemented by Polish glassware from the 1960s or ceramics in calm, subdued hues. Placed in daylight, it will reveal the porcelain’s gloss and gilding; surrounded by indoor greenery, it creates an intimate, contemplative setting for serving coffee or tea.
