These delightful sculptures were originally designed in the late 50's and early 60's by sculptors working with the historic porcelain factory in Cmielow in Poland where porcelain has been in production since 1790.

The production from the mid XX century has been sought after by galleries and private collectors for many years. The availability of pieces has slowly declined although, even today, originals will occasionally come on the market.

Undoubtedly inspired by the work of Picasso and Henry Moore the Cmielow Collection includes figures in bright vibrant colours as well as the monochrome shades so reminiscent of the periods fashion. There are wonderful stylish cats, elegant giraffes, colourful African women, Girls in the fashions of the time, a small Orchestra and much, much more! Overall their appearance is very retro and appear quite modern to us today. They are extremely fashionable for the present market.

Every piece is carefully hand made in the finest porcelain before being decorated again by hand. Each one is numbered and comes complete with a certificate of authenticity showing the sculpture number, the year of the original design and the name of the sculptor.

The sculptors who created the designs have spread throughout the World and some have become famous in their own right. They include one of the founders of the Emotionalism Art Movement Lubomiren Tomaszewski, Hanna Orthwein, Henryk Jedrasiak, Mieczyslaw Naruszewicz and others.
