This 1930s Norwegian sugar caster is a sophisticated example of Art Deco design, uniting the clarity of crystal with the subtle sheen of silver-plated brass. The main body is crafted from transparent, cool-toned glass; its highly polished, glossy finish accentuates the material’s depth and the precision of its vertical faceting. These facets form a gentle octagonal section—an archetypal art deco motif—which enhances the interplay of light across the surface. The lid, made from brass and finished with silver plate, features a softly domed shape and a double-band detail, its satin finish acquiring a natural patina over time. The silhouette is slender yet stable, with a wide, secure base tapering toward an elegant neck—an arrangement devised both for steadiness and comfortable handling. The silver plate bears minor signs of age, and the metal shows subtle, isolated discolorations, wholly consistent with the period. Condition: very good, with no visible cracks, chips, or breaks, and no signs of restoration.This piece echoes the voice of Scandinavian Art Deco—a period when functionality was inseparable from compositional harmony. The geometry of the faceted glass body alludes to interwar architectural rhythms, while the silvered lid recalls the region’s artisanal metalwork heritage. As light plays across the crystal, it seems to speak softly of refined restraint: “in my era, every detail mattered—even for serving the simplest sugar.”This sugar caster can be placed on a classic porcelain tray alongside period coffee sets, or juxtaposed with contemporary, minimalist ceramics to underscore the intersection of vintage craftsmanship and present-day design. It would complement collector’s interiors in the art deco style, but
