ABOUT PRODUCTID 19926
This Art Deco sugar bowl from the 1920s, crafted in Poland from silver-plated brass, exemplifies the refined metalwork of the interwar period. The design is based on minimalist, geometric principles: a wide, symmetrical bowl set atop a low, circular pedestal and graced by a large, arching handle attached with straightforward joints. The surface displays a cool, muted silver tone with a matte finish, bearing gentle patina, minor scratches, and tarnishing typical of its age. There are no additional engravings or decorative motifs, emphasizing the purity of line and utilitarian elegance characteristic of Polish Art Deco. The silhouette is striking, with harmonious proportions formed by the contrast between the expansive bowl and the tall handle. The overall condition is good, with visible signs of use but no significant damage, lending the piece an authentic, collectible quality.The form of this sugar bowl speaks to an era when utility and refinement were held in equal regard with ornament. Its geometric profile and restrained detailing evoke the energetic spirit of the 1920s, when Polish metalwork sought out modern means of expression. The cool, matte silver recalls the atmosphere of interwar salons and cafés—spaces where simplicity met sophisticated form. Each mark and bit of tarnish on the surface is a silent trace of past gatherings, when the sugar bowl served not only a practical purpose but also stood as a witness to daily rituals.The sugar bowl can be displayed on a classic tray of polished wood or marble, accompanied by porcelain tableware and glass dishes to highlight contrasts of material. It pairs well with interiors
