ABOUT PRODUCTID 20036
This sugar bowl, produced in Poland in the 1930s, is made of silver-plated brass and exemplifies the principles of Art Deco design. Its construction is defined by a geometric, symmetrical silhouette: a cylindrical body that gently flares at the base, complemented by a matching lid with a conical knob. Two robust, rectangular handles accentuate the strong, functional lines typical of the era. The surface has a cool, matte silver appearance with a natural patina and numerous fine scratches, testifying to its age. Visible soldering at the handle joints highlights the piece's solid craftsmanship. The absence of ornamentation or engraving underscores the minimalist, utilitarian elegance of its time. The overall condition is good, with noble patina, visible signs of use, and minor surface imperfections, but no major damage or repairs.The form of this sugar bowl tells the story of an era that sought modernity through simplicity and bold geometry. Its cool silver tone and restrained details evoke the atmosphere of interwar Poland, when Art Deco responded to the need for functionality and beauty without excess. Each scratch and hint of tarnish marks past gatherings at the table—everyday rituals where such an object became a silent companion to domestic and social life.This piece could be paired with geometrically patterned porcelain or glassware from the period to highlight its provenance. It will add definition to interiors inspired by Art Deco, but it could also find a place in an eclectic collector’s space—perhaps alongside dark wood, a marble countertop, or minimalist textiles. It may be displayed on a classic chrome or nickel tray, or as an accent among antique vessels on open shelving, where its matte silver surface will harmonize with other metals and glass.
