ABOUT PRODUCTID 11589
This Art Deco organizer, produced in Poland in the 1920s, is crafted from uranium glass in a pale yellow-green, semi-transparent hue with a cool undertone. The rectangular form features slightly beveled edges and substantial, thick walls, emphasizing the piece's solidity, while the glossy, carefully polished surface enhances the glass's clarity and depth. Decorative cut patterns – a central star motif and stylized leaves and branches along the sides – are executed with the precision and symmetry typical of refined Art Deco detailing. The glass is smooth to the touch, with minor chips and signs of use along the edges, but no significant structural damage. Condition is described as worn, with visible signs of age and use, and the piece has not undergone contemporary restoration.This organizer carries the voice of the interwar period – a time when Polish applied arts sought harmony between functionality and decorative ambition. Uranium glass, once a symbol of modernity, reveals a subtle greenish glow in certain lights, especially along the edges. The geometric engravings echo the architectural rhythms of the era, while the substantial form conveys respect for durability and craftsmanship; the whole seems to whisper of daily rituals in a period study.The organizer can be used on a desk, console, or sideboard, where it accommodates writing accessories or small collectibles. It would pair well with other elements from the 1920s and 1930s, especially those with glass or chromed accents. It is worth combining with minimalist ceramics or dark wood veneer to highlight the cool tone of the uranium glass. Interiors inspired by Art Deco, early modernism, or eclectic collections would provide a natural setting for this piece.
