ABOUT PRODUCTID 38039
This Art Deco butter dish from the 1930s, produced by the JLW factory in Łódź, exemplifies the distinct language of Polish design from this era. The body, crafted from silver-plated brass, displays a cool, mirror-like sheen, while—according to the description—the interior is finished with gold plating. The original, faceted crystal insert is covered by a domed lid featuring a geometric ring handle. The crescent-shaped handles with circular cutouts contrast harmoniously with the cylindrical form, lending the piece a sculptural and modernist presence. Its proportions—18.5 cm wide, 9.5 cm high, 12 cm in diameter—convey a sense of solidity and decorative appeal. The surface bears subtle signs of use, such as fine scratches and gentle patina, yet remains in very good condition, free of dents or major damage, while retaining all original elements and authenticity.The poised, dynamic form of this butter dish tells the story of the 1930s—a period when Polish applied arts embraced modernity without abandoning ornamentation. Geometric details and reflective surfaces evoke the spirit of interwar urban sophistication, while the gold-plated interior discreetly alludes to the everyday luxury of the era’s rituals. If this piece could speak, it would recall with pride the days when both modernity and tradition graced the Łódź table, and every detail was imbued with meaning.The butter dish can be used as part of a breakfast table set in a classic interior or as a decorative accent on a sideboard in an Art Deco or eclectic living room. It may be paired with porcelain featuring geometric patterns, colored glass, or polished metals to highlight its period style. In a contemporary arrangement, combining it with minimalist forms and a white background will accentuate its sculptural silhouette and the refined interplay of metal and crystal.
