ABOUT PRODUCTID 13463
This 1930s glass bonbonnière, produced by HSG Ząbkowice in Poland, exemplifies the pressed glass craftsmanship associated with Central European glassworks during the Art Deco era. The body is made of clear, transparent glass with a high degree of brilliance, adorned with a deeply pressed geometric relief featuring diamond and circular motifs. Both the lid and base display the same faceted texture, enhancing the play of light and accentuating the decorative details. The oval form is meticulously balanced, with a scalloped base edge and a silver-toned, subtly patinated metal mount clasp crowning the lid—a testament to the refined execution of pre-war utilitarian glass. The material, substantial pressed glass, offers crisp tactility; the metal clasp serves both practical and decorative purposes. The condition is very good for its age—no chips or cracks are seen, and a gentle patina on the metal parts attests to authentic vintage character.A glance at this bonbonnière echoes the spirit of the 1930s: an era marked by faith in progress, refined elegance, and a reverence for craftsmanship. It conjures images of salon gatherings and festive family moments—instances when Art Deco geometry shaped the rhythm of pre-war bourgeois life. Each facet of the glass reflects light with subtle variation, while the aged metal fitting mirrors a discreet interplay of function and decoration—an echo of those days when even the smallest objects nodded to modernity.This Ząbkowice bonbonnière would suit both classical and eclectic collector’s interiors. It can be combined with other period Art Deco pieces, a marble tray, or a chromed platter to enhance its geometric line. It works well in a living room on a console beside a mirrored tray or minimalist ceramics; the transparent glass allows for evocative light effects, so placement near natural daylight will reveal the sharpness of the relief and the subtle character of the patinated metal.
