ABOUT PRODUCTID 12673
This Art Nouveau sugar bowl, attributed to the Szandrik manufactory and dating from the early 20th century, is crafted from silver-plated brass. Its dominant tone is a warm, matte silver, subtly modulated by natural patina that reveals gleaming flashes of brass beneath. The cylindrical body rests on three ornate, soldered feet, with a gracefully curved handle typical of organic Art Nouveau lines. The lid is adorned with delicate, plant-inspired engravings—fluid, asymmetrical motifs characteristic of the period. The object's proportions are harmonious, with carefully executed construction emphasizing precise craftsmanship and understated, naturally aged surfaces. Soldered joints on the handle and feet attest to traditional methods. No visible damage or traces of restoration are present, preserving the bowl's collector integrity. Surface has gentle scratches and authentic tarnishing consistent with its age; it is in very good, original condition.This piece embodies the quiet spirit of the Belle Époque; its materials and ornamentation evoke an era when daily rituals acquired a poetic dimension. The flowing leaf motifs and arching lines recall a time when objects were crafted to enchant as well as serve. A gentle patina speaks of an unhurried century, while light caresses the softly gleaming surface, capturing a subtle reflection of the past.The sugar bowl may be displayed on a classic dining table or an eclectic sideboard, paired with floral porcelain or early 20th-century glassware. It brings a subtle historical accent to interiors inspired by Art Nouveau, while also integrating gracefully into more contemporary spaces as a singular, distinctive touch. It could be combined with linen tablecloths and smoked glass to create a moody, slightly theatrical setting for afternoon tea or coffee.
