ABOUT PRODUCTID 20038
This spherical sugar bowl from WMF Ikora, dating to the 1930s, exemplifies functional European Art Deco craftsmanship in silver-plated brass. The surface features a cool, silvery metallic tone with a slightly matte finish, highlighted by a natural patina and minor scratches typical of genuine pieces from this era. A slender gold-toned decorative band encircles the lid, subtly interrupting the minimalist geometric form. The lid is finished with a vertical, streamlined handle, while the perfectly spherical body rests on a flat, circular base for stability. The construction is seamless and solid, with no visible screws or rivets, and all original components are preserved. The overall condition is good—only gentle scuffs and patina are visible, with no major dents or damage.This sugar bowl echoes the spirit of the 1930s, when modernist ideals met masterful craftsmanship. Its geometric shape and discrete gold band narrate the search for harmony between function and decoration—a time when daily rituals like serving tea or coffee became subtle acts of modernity. The slender handle, reminiscent of an architectural detail, suggests that even the simplest gestures can possess a sense of style, while the silvery surface, marked by the passage of time, speaks of gatherings and stories shared at the table.The WMF Ikora sugar bowl is at home in a collector’s display of 1920s or 1930s tableware, or as a striking accent on a contemporary table alongside geometric-patterned porcelain or glassware with chromed accents. It can be paired with minimalist white and grey ceramics to highlight the cool sheen of the metal, or introduced into Art Deco-inspired interiors where it might sit among black glass or marble accessories. It would also function well as a decorative piece in a modern kitchen, where its spherical form and subtle gold
