ABOUT PRODUCTID 20027
This sugar bowl from the 1950s, crafted in Germany in the spirit of Art Deco, is made of brass with a silver-plated finish. Its silhouette reveals a sculptural approach: gently flared, rounded walls with a wide opening, subtly cinched at the waist. The body is encircled by vertical, rhythmic fluting, a nod to the geometric, modernist influences of its era. The minimalist design, free from handles or a lid, underscores its functional, understated character. The brass, coated in silver, creates a cool, silvery hue, softened in places by patina and natural wear. The surface is mostly smooth and glossy, though areas of matte texture, minor scratches, and darker spots where the plating has thinned reveal the underlying metal. The condition is classified as worn, with clear signs of patina, abrasions, and silver loss, reinforcing its authentic vintage presence.This piece echoes the voice of postwar Germany, seeking harmony between function and ornament. The geometric fluting tells of a fascination with order and rhythm, while the minimalist form channels the Art Deco ethos—still a symbol of modernity and discreet elegance in the 1950s. Abrasions and patina here are not flaws but traces of daily use, a memory of home gatherings and conversations over coffee. The cool metallic sheen, interrupted by patches of oxidation, recalls interiors where simplicity and detail found balance.The sugar bowl can be used as a focal point on a dining table in modernist-inspired or eclectic collector’s
