The 'Miasto' decorative plate is a quintessential example of Polish mid-century modernism, produced by Zakłady Porcelitu in Chodzież in the 1950s. Its smooth, glazed porcelain surface is finished in a deep, cool black, contrasted by a striking white, etched composition depicting an abstract cityscape. Geometric lines, forming stylized buildings, windows, and rooftops, evoke the aesthetics of mid-century modern with clear references to cubism and abstraction characteristic of the Polish New Look era. The plate features slightly raised edges and harmonious proportions (30.6 cm in diameter, approximately 3.5 cm in height). The underside bears the manufacturer's mark beneath the glaze and a metal hook for wall mounting. The plate is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damage or restoration; the surface retains its original gloss and graphic clarity, showing only minimal signs of use.This plate echoes the voice of postwar Polish modernity—dynamic, bold, and seeking new means of artistic expression. Its stark black ground and graphic drawing recall the spirit of the 1950s, when designers experimented with form, drawing inspiration from the avant-garde and urban landscapes. The plate seems to narrate the story of the emerging optimism in Polish design, where every rhythm of line and play of light and shadow builds a sense of order and modern energy. Like a fragment of architectural notation, it captures the pulse of the city in ceramic form.The 'Miasto' plate may be displayed on a sideboard or low table as a graphic accent in mid-century interiors, especially alongside furniture with clean lines and natural materials. It also lends itself perfectly to wall display—hung
