ABOUT PRODUCTID 12406
This figural centerpiece from 1930s Poland exemplifies Art Deco craftsmanship, where balanced form meets attention to detail. The clear glass bowl, with its subtle cool undertone, features a geometric, scalloped cut along the rim—each facet catching the light, enhancing the depth and faceted character of the material. The base is made of patinated brass in an antique gold tone, accented in places with darker oxidation. Three naturalistically rendered putti, with soft features and dynamic poses, support the glass bowl, standing on a rectangular plinth with stylized feet. The overall construction reveals solid workmanship, and the casting and finishing of the metal showcase careful handcraft. The condition is very good—showing only minor patina and minimal wear, with no damage or evidence of restoration; all elements retain their original character.This centerpiece tells the story of Polish Art Deco, where tradition met modernity. The figural putti evoke a fascination with classical art, but their simplified features and lively arrangement capture the spirit of the 1930s—a time when design gained lightness and precious materials were reimagined through geometric discipline. The cool, transparent glass seems to capture the morning light of a past era, while the brass with its patina speaks to the passage of time without losing its decorative presence.In a living room arrangement, this centerpiece could be paired with furniture featuring the clean, geometric lines characteristic of Art Deco, or introduced as a highlight in an eclectic interior—contrasting with soft textiles and warm wood tones. It would work well on a lacquered wood console or marble surface, alongside pressed glass, ceramic vases, or a stylized candlestick. Consider combining it with a metal-framed mirror or period graphic art to emphasize the collectible nature of the space.
