ABOUT PRODUCTID 4209
This Art Deco bonbonniere from the Ikora series, crafted by WMF in Germany during the 1930s, exemplifies the geometric design language of the period. Made of silver-plated brass and accented with enamel, its surface features a bold arrangement of alternating black and silver vertical stripes. The faceted, conical body stands on a slightly flared foot, while the lid is finished with a geometric knob reminiscent of interwar architecture. The piece is distinguished by its compact form, pronounced symmetry, and precise construction—well-defined joints and balanced proportions reflect the modernist discipline of the era. Measuring 14 cm in height and 16 cm in diameter. Condition: visible signs of use, patina, and minor scratches typical for authentic pieces from this period, with no major damage.
This bonbonniere evokes an era when ornament gave way to geometry and craftsmanship embraced the allure of modernity. Its cool, almost matte surface with areas of natural oxidation echoes the ambiance of interwar salons, where light traced patterns across sleek metallic stripes. The rhythm of vertical lines speaks to a desire for order, while the faceted knob hints at a pursuit of harmony—a time marked by the search for beauty in simplicity and precision.
Such a vessel could be displayed atop a walnut or ebony console, paired with a bronze sculpture or geometric ceramic to emphasize its Art Deco inspiration. It would work well in a living room defined by collector's eclecticism or classic modernism, especially when combined with a black-framed mirror or period glass accents. It could also serve as a standalone accent on a bookshelf or alongside silver candlesticks, allowing its form to draw the eye and contrast elegantly with softer textiles.
