ABOUT PRODUCTID 13154
This sugar bowl from the 1930s embodies Polish Art Deco at its most modernist, made from silver-plated brass. The body takes the shape of a wide cone set on a low, circular pedestal, underscoring the futuristic geometry characteristic of the late 1920s and 1930s. Its handle forms an open frame with a near-diamond outline, integrating function with an architectural detail. The cool, silvery matte finish displays subtle texture and localized oxidation, free from any decorative accents or engravings, emphasizing the purity of form. The construction is cohesive and solid, crafted with attention to the clarity of line. Signs of use—a touch of patina, subtle surface rubbing—testify to the vessel’s age. The overall condition is good, with authentic patina and minor marks typical for an object nearly a century old.This sugar bowl speaks in the language of the future as envisioned by Art Deco designers—balanced between futurism and practical simplicity. The silvered metal reflects light with a gentle matte sheen, reminiscent of a modernist city skyline glimpsed through morning haze. Its unadorned surface affirms the power of geometry and the belief that useful objects should be straightforward and honest; here, the sugar bowl seems to echo the avant-garde spirit and creative ambition of prewar Lwów.One may combine it on a table with geometric glassware or porcelain from the same era to highlight its architectural lines. It would also work well as a standalone accent on a shelf, against dark wood or crisp linen, emphasizing a minimalist interior scheme. For collectors, pairing it with other metal wares or fine Bauhaus-style glass will evoke the ambiance of the 1930s and celebrate the noble qualities of its material.
