ABOUT PRODUCTID 16881
This powder box, crafted in 1930s Czechoslovakia from salmon-pink crystal glass, reflects the classic language of Art Deco. Its compact, cylindrical shape—measuring 11.5 cm wide and 11 cm high—is accentuated by a robust, faceted lid crowned with a tall, geometric finial. Both the lid and body are adorned with precise, vertical fluting that imparts decorative rhythm and symmetry, hallmarks of the era's aesthetic. The glass surface is highly polished, revealing the uniform, translucent pink hue with tonal intensities deepening around the edges and base. The construction is free from metal fittings or handles, preserving the clarity of the form. Condition: good. There is a minor chip on the inner rim, without cracks, and the overall structure remains coherent. The object conveys the spirit of an age that valued clarity of line and harmonious proportion. In this warm salmon shade, the glass seems to capture light and memory, condensing the ambiance of a bygone era into a single refined vessel. One can imagine it speaking of boudoir rituals, the shimmer of pre-war evenings, or the quiet morning moments filled with scent and gentle movement—instances where everyday beauty found its form in symmetry and detail. The powder box is well suited to a bedroom vanity, accentuating the intimate character of the setting and lending order to personal effects—jewelry, brooches, or powder compacts. It could be paired with other Art Deco objects, such as a geometric glass vase or silvered picture frame, or set against contemporary minimal accessories in steel or marble to highlight the interplay of styles. It fits comfortably with muted palettes or in curated, collector’s
