ABOUT PRODUCTID 38542
This porcelain platter, designed by Adam Sadulski for the Karolina factory in Jaworzyna Śląska, exemplifies Polish modernism of the 1960s. The piece stands out with its asymmetrical, organic outline, gently curved edges, and elongated proportions (height 2.4–5.3 cm, width 13.3 cm, length 23.2 cm). Its upper surface is dominated by a deep, cool-toned black with a matte finish, interrupted by a dynamic, hand-painted pattern of white, wavy lines on one segment—creating a bold, graphic contrast. The underside and rim are crisp white, framing the design and emphasizing its visual clarity. The surface is smooth and glossy, finished with the precision characteristic of high-quality porcelain. The platter is in very good condition, with no visible damage or discoloration, maintaining its original finish and authenticity.The form of this platter quietly echoes the 1960s, an era when Polish design sought its own voice at the intersection of modernism and the avant-garde. Its asymmetry and interplay of black and white evoke a spirit of experimentation and creative freedom: the hand-painted lines recall the gesture of a painter, imparting a sense of individuality to the object. The piece tells the story of its time—a period when even utilitarian objects became small-scale abstract compositions inspired by Picasso and the European modernist movement.The platter can be used both for serving and as a decorative accent on a console, shelf, or low table. It could be paired with other examples of Polish mid-century design—porcelain ceramics, minimalist vases, or glassware with geometric lines. It will work well in mid-century modern interiors as well as in eclectic, collector’s spaces, where bold contrasts and expressive patterns create a compelling arrangement.
