This vase, produced in 1959 by the Wałbrzych Porcelain Factory, exemplifies Polish design of the 1950s, blending a classic form with a modern finish. Its minimalist silhouette, featuring a gently flared neck and rounded base, highlights the fluid proportions typical of the mid-century modern movement. The porcelain body is coated with a metallic glaze in a warm copper hue, creating a smooth, high-gloss surface that dynamically reflects light and its surroundings. The copper coloration subtly shifts between darker and lighter tones depending on the curvature and lighting, sometimes revealing hints of brown or black in the reflections. The surface is unadorned by additional patterns or accent colors, emphasizing its restrained elegance. The piece is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damage, chips, or significant signs of use—the original finish remains fully intact.This vase carries the voice of postwar Europe, where harmony between tradition and modernity was sought in everyday objects. Its form recalls the calm simplicity of the era, while the metallic glaze echoes the fascination of mid-century designers with new glazing techniques and lustrous finishes. As light glances off its polished surface, the vase seems to narrate a story of a time when subtle decoration and practicality went hand in hand, and every detail was considered.The vase can be paired with other minimalist elements—low teak tables, ceramic bowls, or simple glassware—to showcase its sheen and timeless character. Interiors styled in mid-century modern, eclectic collector’s spaces, or contemporary settings with a neutral palette would provide a suitable backdrop for this accent piece. Combining it with a single sculptural branch or flower may further emphasize the vase’s minimalist elegance.
