This basket-form sugar bowl from 1960s Poland is crafted from nickel-plated brass. The cylindrical body is adorned with an openwork band featuring a repetitive geometric pattern, lending a sense of visual rhythm and lightness to the composition. The flat, circular lid has a notch for a spoon and is topped with a distinctive, sculptural handle—angular, slightly twisted, and attached with visible rivets. The entire piece is finished in a cool, silvery matte tone. The construction reveals utilitarian details and visible joints, embodying the postmodern approach to everyday objects. The surface shows minor scratches, spots, and patina typical of authentic vintage pieces from this era. Overall, it remains in good condition with all original elements present and no major damage.This small object channels the voice of Polish postmodernism in the 1960s—a time when utility and decoration began to blend in daily life. The openwork band slices light, casting subtle shadows across the table, while the twisted handle evokes the experimental spirit of the era. The metal, bearing patina and traces of use, tells stories of home gatherings and casual conversations over tea. Every detail quietly asks: can a utilitarian object also be a bold miniature sculpture?The sugar bowl may be paired with classic porcelain as well as modern, minimalist tableware. It could be placed on a raw wooden dining or kitchen table, where its cool surface contrasts with the warmth of wood. Combining it with other metal accents—such as a chromed tray or simple geometric crockery—would bring out its graphic presence. In vintage-inspired collector’s interiors, it can serve as a subtle accent among glassware and ceramics from various decades.
