ABOUT PRODUCTID 12426
This 1930s Belgian Art Deco toothpick holder is crafted from silver-plated copper, with a cool, matte silver finish that reveals warmer copper tones where the plating has gently worn away. The silhouette is geometric and subtly tapered, with a softly flared rim and a decorative copper band at the top adorned with small, raised motifs characteristic of interwar Art Deco. The surface combines smooth and delicately textured areas, with an authentic patina, localized abrasion, and scattered fine scratches. The construction is robust, original details remain intact, and signs of use are consistent with the era. The overall condition is good: visible discoloration and wear do not affect the object's function or integrity.This small piece echoes the voice of 1930s Europe—a time when even everyday accessories bore the imprint of artistic ambition. The silvery surface, with its exposed copper, tells a story of the era's blend of luxury and restraint. The decorative band with raised motifs recalls the urban elegance of the period, while the gentle patina conjures evenings spent in salons and restaurants, where such an object might have quietly accompanied the rituals of gathering.The toothpick holder could be placed on a classic tray alongside other silver-plated accessories—napkin rings or a crystal decanter—to highlight its historical context. It would also work as a detail on a collector's sideboard or on a console beside a lamp with a geometric shade. Interiors inspired by Art Deco or eclectic vintage arrangements would be enriched by its presence, and it can also be juxtaposed with clean, modern objects to accentuate the contrast between past and present aesthetics.
