ABOUT PRODUCTID 23290
This early 20th-century cruet or small carafe embodies Art Nouveau elegance in a tableware essential. Made from clear, profiled glass with a subtle spiral ribbed pattern, the body refracts light and emphasizes a sense of lightness. The fittings—including a flat lid, spout, and handle—are crafted from brass in a warm, golden hue with a matte, brushed texture. The handle’s distinctly geometric, sharply angled form contrasts with the organic glass curves, reflecting late Secessionist and early modernist influences. Metal and glass components are joined with precision, while compact proportions (height 9.5 cm, diameter 4.5 cm, length 7 cm) ensure comfortable use and a stable grip. The condition is very good: the glass is free from chips or cracks, the brass displays only a delicate age-related patina, and there are no visible restoration traces—each element remains authentic and complete.The carafe whispers of the early 20th century, when the dining table was a daily ritual and even utilitarian vessels bore the spirit of their era. The spiral grooves in the glass catch the light, echoing decorative motifs of Art Nouveau interiors, while the geometric brass handle signals a shift toward Modernism. The metal’s gentle patina holds the warmth and nostalgia of decades past, telling quiet stories of shared meals and culinary traditions.This cruet could be paired with late 19th- or early 20th-century porcelain or simple white ceramics to highlight its artistic heritage. It would work well in Art Nouveau, historicist, or eclectic table settings, where glass and metal details harmonize with natural linen or hand-embroidered tablecloths.
