ABOUT PRODUCTID 12757
This Art Deco powdered sugar shaker, created in the United Kingdom in the 1950s, combines a body of thick, clear glass cut in a diamond-pattern lattice with a silver-plated brass lid. The tall, gently tapering profile emphasizes the vertical presence characteristic of late Art Deco as well as mid-century modern. The cap, crafted from polished silver-plated brass, features a dome-like form topped with a small spherical finial and is pierced with evenly spaced round holes for precise sprinkling, further accented by two concentric decorative ridges at its base. The joint between glass and metal is seamless, highlighting the piece’s quality craftsmanship. The glass surface remains clear, the metal gleams without evidence of tarnish or wear. Condition is very good vintage: the shaker is undamaged, well-preserved, with a clean finish to all its elements.This compact object carries the quiet spirit of British postwar refinement—the era when geometry and function blended with restrained decoration. The glass’s rhythmic lattice captures light in the morning, the silvered lid softly reflects its surroundings. Art Deco’s decorative inclination here transforms the simple act of dusting sugar into a gesture of dignified elegance, bringing a touch of occasion to daily rituals—whether it’s tea in bone china or a homemade cake awaiting its snowy topping.This sugar shaker will sit comfortably in a collector’s display or amid everyday table settings. It could be paired with Meissen porcelain, a crystal serving tray, or modern white ceramic cups in Scandinavian style. It would complement classic or eclectic dining rooms, where the geometric spirit of the 1950s can subtly bridge tradition and modernity. For arrangement, consider placing it with linen textiles, a matte serving tray, or a metal napkin holder to highlight
