Abstract
As proven by research on Polish craft and material culture, Gdansk has for a long time been considered as a destination for both imported luxurious goods and products made in local craftsmen’s workshops. The Gdansk market of the 18th century responded to the needs of the Polish noblemen, clergy and magnates. Burghers from Warsaw also purchased goods sold in Gdansk. This issue has been touched upon in earlier research by Bożenna Maszkowska and Hanna Szwankowska. There were few Gdansk products in the houses of Warsaw burghers in the second half of the 18th century; however, the phenomenon is worth mentioning. In the houses of Warsaw burghers wardrobes, seating furniture, cabinets andtables could be found. Nevertheless, the most common goods found in Warsaw homes were boxes manufactured in Gdansk. The list also includes faience and tin products, furnishing fabrics, table cloths and towels. Yet, it is uncertain whether the goods described here were manufactured in Gdansk, or perhaps they were made in the north of Poland in smaller centres near Gdansk, which copied the Gdansk manufacturing style.
