ABOUT PRODUCTID 11414
This salt cellar, crafted in Sweden in the 1930s, represents Art Deco craftsmanship where silver-plated brass acquires a soft, matte golden hue. The cylindrical body is adorned with a repeating diagonal pattern of small, dark blue or black enameled accents, imparting a geometric rhythm characteristic of the period. The rim and base remain smooth, highlighted only by a subtle beaded detail, while the thin, rounded handle, attached at two points, completes the composition in a balanced way. The interior features a deep cobalt blue glass liner, providing a striking contrast to the metallic exterior and enhancing its visual appeal. The proportions are classic, with a low, wide profile and refined detailing. The piece is preserved in very good condition, displaying a light patina typical of its age, with no signs of restoration or visible damage.This small object evokes the setting of a Swedish table in the interwar years, where craftsmanship met the geometric discipline of Art Deco. The brass surface, with its subtle patina, tells of the passage of time and a devotion to detail that required no ostentation. The repeating enamel motif recalls an era when function and design were equally valued, while the cobalt glass insert reflects light like a memory of convivial gatherings.The salt cellar would suit a dining table arranged in a classic or Art Deco style, paired with porcelain featuring geometric lines or glassware in cool tones. It can be combined with other silver-plated accessories or glass dishes with metallic highlights to create a cohesive arrangement. Interiors in muted colors, accented with navy, grey, or black, will allow both the subtle gleam of the metal and the intensity of the cobalt blue glass to stand out.
