ABOUT PRODUCTID 13347
This Art Deco pillbox from 1930s Poland embodies the era's rigorous geometry through the interplay of clear, faceted cut crystal and silver-plated copper. Its vertical and angular cuts form distinct, sharp facets that catch and reflect light, enhancing the decorative language typical of Art Deco. The circular lid in silver-plated copper presents a cool, matte surface, with a visible, age-acquired patina, attesting to the noble quality of its materials. The seamless junction between metal and glass is precisely crafted; details such as the neatly fitting rim and clean cuts bear witness to artisanal skill. Despite its vintage, the container maintains practical functionality: the lid closes firmly to protect the contents, and its compact proportions suit it for storing small items, jewelry, or pharmaceuticals. In good vintage condition, the box shows light surface scratches to the lid and a subtle, distinguished patina—honest traces of time.In its form, this object channels the voice of the age when bold symmetry and the coolness of metal contrasted with the sparkle of crystal. A fragment of a world where precision was celebrated as much as decorative restraint, the clear, cut glass shimmers with an architectural clarity reminiscent of the modernist interwar cityscape; the silvery lid murmurs tales of decades past. The pillbox thus emerges as an intimate, quietly precious artifact—intended to house both the everyday and the ceremonial, a reminder of a domestic world shaped by method and beauty.In a contemporary interior, it
