ABOUT PRODUCTID 23613
This ceramic vase from the 1960s, designed by Maria Worotyńska for the Białystok Folk Industry Cooperative, is made of glazed ceramic. The piece is defined by its bulbous, organic silhouette, tapering towards the base and neck, with a single, small handle subtly attached near the rim. The dominant tone is a deep, cool green, with the glossy glaze creating nuanced tonal transitions—lighter and darker shades emphasize the pronounced, irregularly dimpled surface texture. The finish is sleek, with visible traces of handcrafting in the undulating form and gently asymmetric profile. The proportions (height 22.5 cm, width approx. 13 cm, length approx. 14.5 cm) are harmonious, underscoring the mid-century modern inspiration of the designer. The vase is in very good condition, with no signs of damage, discoloration, or restoration.The form of this vase evokes the boldness and creative freedom of the 1960s, when Polish design embraced experimentation with materials and organic lines. The irregular texture and deep green glaze pulse with the spirit of the era: it is an object that might once have stood on a shelf in a modernist Białystok apartment, among geometric textiles and wooden furniture. The vase seems to whisper stories of a time when craft and artistic expression intertwined in the search for authenticity, and every trace of the maker’s tool on the ceramic surface was meaningful.The vase could be paired with other period vessels or minimalist accessories in natural materials—wood, glass, or linen. In a mid-century modern living room, it works as a singular accent on a low sideboard or grouped with pale walls and geometric artwork. It is worth pairing with a bold-leafed plant or a single seasonal branch to highlight its organic quality and bring out the subtle nuances of the glaze.
