ABOUT PRODUCTID 11524
This Art Deco salt cellar, produced by HSG Ząbkowice in Poland in the 1930s, is made from transparent pressed glass in a distinctly warm, golden-amber hue. Its compact, round form features thickened walls for stability and durability, while the precisely spaced vertical ribs create a geometric rhythm characteristic of the Art Deco style. The glass is smooth, glossy, and consistent in color, free from additional decoration, highlighting the restraint and functionality of the design. A flat, even base and clearly tactile ribbing speak to the quality typical of interwar Polish utilitarian glass. The piece is preserved in very good condition – no chips, cracks, or signs of heavy use; the surface retains its original luster and clarity.This small salt cellar carries the voice of the 1930s, a time when everyday life was enriched by carefully designed accessories. The amber glass captures the light, introducing a warm tone to the table, while the geometric ribs evoke an affection for order and the modern elegance of Art Deco. Simple yet refined, it recalls the ceremonial nature of daily rituals and the optimism of interwar Poland, where even a salt cellar could express progress and attention to detail.It may be paired with porcelain from the era or glasses in a similar hue to emphasize a historically cohesive table setting. The piece also works as a subtle accent among contemporary ceramics, creating contrast between past and present aesthetics. Interiors inspired by Art Deco or eclectic arrangements with retro touches will highlight both the geometric rhythm of the ribbing and the warm glass color. Whether displayed in a collector’s cabinet, set among other glassware, or used at the daily table, this Ząbkowice salt cellar brings a delicate fragment of history into the present.
