ABOUT PRODUCTID 11417
This Art Deco salt shaker, crafted in Sweden in the 1930s, is made from silver-plated brass with a cool, understated silvery tone and a predominantly matte finish. The body features a gently flared cylindrical shape, capped with a flat, hinged lid. Its angular, rectangular handle forms a geometric loop, emphasizing the minimalist, functionalist aesthetic distinctive of Scandinavian Art Deco. The design is free from decorative embellishments, focusing on pure lines, balanced proportions, and practical use. The surface bears a consistent patina, along with minor signs of age: fine scratches, subtle discolorations, and small spots, all attesting to the object's authenticity. Construction is solid, with precise joints at the handle and hinge, and the lid fits flush with the body. The overall condition is very good – no major dents or damage, only minor wear consistent with its vintage character.This salt shaker embodies the calm restraint and rational spirit of 1930s northern Europe. The interwar period in Sweden was marked by a fascination with clarity of form and a belief in modernity—everyday objects were intended to be both practical and visually refined. The geometric silhouette and matte surface recall elegant, orderly interiors where every detail had meaning, and function was in harmony with form. The quiet presence of silvered metal evokes an era when simplicity equaled luxury, and subtle traces of use narrate the history of many tables and gatherings.The salt shaker serves as a refined accent on a classic wooden breakfast tray or alongside porcelain tableware inspired by the Art Deco era. It can be paired with other metal or glass accessories featuring clean lines—well suited to both vintage collector interiors and contemporary dining rooms, where a historic detail adds dimension to a minimalist setting.
