ABOUT PRODUCTID 12756
This Art Deco sugar shaker from the 1950s, produced in the United Kingdom, exemplifies the marriage of cut glass craftsmanship and utilitarian silver-plated brass. The clear glass body is adorned with diamond-shaped and starburst motifs, echoing the disciplined geometry of the Art Deco movement. The glass is highly polished for a glossy, luminous surface. The brass screw-on lid, plated with silver, shows organic patina, tarnish, and matte areas typical of authentic vintage items. The evenly spaced holes are functional for dusting powdered sugar, while grooved lines encircle the base of the lid for improved grip. The screw mechanism connecting lid and glass ensures solidity and smooth use. There is no visible damage: only fine scratches and gentle signs of age, all original and untouched by restoration. The condition is very good, all elements appear authentic and intact.This piece subtly evokes the ritual and elegance of postwar British interiors. The play of light on glass and the quiet matte of the aged lid recall those moments when even the simple act of sugaring a dessert became a miniature ceremony. The crisp geometric cuts suggest convivial conversation at the table, while the darkened brass is both a witness to passing decades and a marker of enduring utility.This sugar shaker may be set alone on a polished chrome tray or paired with porcelain and glassware designed in the spirit of mid-century modern. It could be grouped with classic tea or coffee services atop a veneered sideboard, where the reflections in glass find harmony with the creamy whites of cups and saucers. Equally fitting in an Art Deco-inspired living room or a collector’s eclectic setting, this is a vessel for both everyday and celebratory occasions.
