ABOUT PRODUCTID 12658
This Art Nouveau sugar bowl from Sweden, dating to the early 20th century, is crafted entirely from metal — likely pewter or a silver-plated alloy. The piece presents a cool, silvery-gray color with a matte, subtly aged patina. The body is encircled by pronounced vertical fluting, creating a soft shell motif that extends harmoniously onto the footed base. The upper rim is marked by a rounded, medallion-like border, while the swinging handle features a finely beaded edge — a testament to the refined craftsmanship typical of Scandinavian artistry during the Art Nouveau period. The proportions are carefully balanced: a wide bowl narrows to a single pedestal foot, resulting in an elegant, chalice-like silhouette that speaks to both sculptural and functional intent. No maker’s marks are visible on the photographed side. The sugar bowl remains in good antique condition, showing gentle surface scratches, a natural patina, and subtle traces of age-appropriate use, with no major damage.This piece quietly narrates the turn-of-the-century era, when Art Nouveau looked to nature’s forms to redefine everyday objects. Its flowing fluted body and rhythmic motifs capture the gentle movement of water or the soft undulations of shells — metal caught mid-dance by the hand of a skilled artisan. Fine detailing and a serene palette evoke a time when even tableware combined utility with artistic expression, reflecting the subtlety of Scandinavian applied arts.The sugar bowl could be placed on a dining table inspired by Art Nouveau tradition or in a well-lit collector’s display cabinet. It may be paired with organically shaped porcelain, single crystal vessels, or both delicately decorated and minimalist contemporary wares that allow its decorative surface to stand out
