ABOUT PRODUCTID 1581
This Hertel Jacob porcelain bonbonniere from 1930 exemplifies the artistry of German Art Deco. Crafted from high-quality white porcelain, the vessel features a faceted, geometric body and a flared base, hallmarks of modernist design from the period. Its surface is hand-painted with stylized floral and abstract motifs in a deep magenta hue, arranged rhythmically across the body and lid. The lid is crowned with an elongated, architectural finial finished in glossy gold, complemented by gilded accents along the rim and base and delicate gold details on the decorative lid elements. The entire piece is finished to a high gloss, enhancing the vibrancy of the colors and the elegance of the gilding. The Hertel Jacob factory mark on the underside confirms authenticity. The bonbonniere measures 19 cm in height and 15.5 cm in diameter. It remains in excellent condition, with no visible damage or signs of use—decorative painting and gilding are complete and vivid.
The form of this bonbonniere speaks to an era when modernity was taking shape: sharp lines and symmetry echo 1930s architecture, when geometry and ornamentation coexisted in harmony. The hand-painted motifs pulse with the rhythm of the jazz age and the dynamic evolution of applied arts. Its glossy porcelain and gilding recall the luxury offered by Germany’s finest porcelain manufactories, each facet catching the light like a crystal ballroom. This object carries the energy of its time: modern, yet imbued with refinement and a sense of theatrical gesture.
Such a bonbonniere can be displayed atop a console or sideboard in a living room, where it becomes a focal point—equally striking on its own or among geometric ceramics and mirrored Art Deco accents
