ABOUT PRODUCTID 12445
This Swedish salt spoon from the 1930s is crafted from silver-plated brass and encapsulates the period’s subtle blend of function and understated ornamentation. The well-proportioned, gently elongated handle is adorned with double linear embossing and ends in a heart-shaped tip—a nod to the stylistic interlude between late Art Nouveau and Art Deco. The outer surface presents a matte, aged sheen with authentic patina and the natural signs of decades of gentle use. The interior of the bowl features distinctive golden-brass hues, emerging where the silver plating has gracefully worn, betraying moments of ritualistic use at the table. The 'D.W.' monogram engraved on the handle hints at a personal story long woven into the object. The design’s restraint and clarity reflect its era, making it versatile and quietly dignified. The piece remains in very good vintage condition—with darkened areas, historic patina, and light surface scratches that reinforce its provenance and period character.This small object quietly speaks the language of Swedish interwar craftsmanship—a period defined by careful equilibrium between functional simplicity and gentle embellishment. The heart-shaped finial and symmetrical grooves are discreet gestures towards individuality, set against the backdrop of a society transitioning towards modernity. The interior’s brass radiance evokes images of gatherings past, when even utilitarian wares played their part in daily rituals and festive moments. Its visible signs of age do not diminish
