ABOUT PRODUCTID 11629
This set of three bread knives from the 1950s, crafted in Poland, exemplifies postwar utilitarian design focused on function and material honesty. Each knife is made of silver-plated brass, presenting a cool, subtly matte sheen. The construction is monolithic, with no visible joints or embellishments. Handles feature an organic, gently contoured silhouette that flows seamlessly into the broad, rounded blades. Absence of engraving and decoration emphasizes practicality, in keeping with the mid-century modern ethos of 1950s Polish design. The surface bears a distinct patina, with visible oxidation spots, discoloration, and fine scratches—especially on the upper parts of the blades. The set remains in good condition, with clear signs of use and natural patina consistent with its age.These knives evoke an era when value lay in durability and simplicity. The silver-toned surfaces, dulled in places, recall everyday postwar kitchens—morning breakfasts, family gatherings, and the unassuming gestures of daily life. The streamlined handles reflect modernist restraint, where form followed function and the material spoke for itself. Patina and discoloration mark the passage of time, standing as evidence of countless domestic stories across decades.This set can be paired with stoneware dishes, linen napkins, or a solid wooden cutting board to create an authentic retro mood. It would work well in a minimalist mid-century kitchen, where the knives’ simplicity accentuates the honesty of materials. They may be combined with other vintage elements—glass carafes, handwoven tablecloths, or simple ceramics—to build a cohesive narrative of 1950s utilitarian heritage.
