ABOUT PRODUCTID 11561
This crumb scoop from the 1930s exemplifies Belgian Art Deco craftsmanship, made from silver-plated brass. The matte, silvery surface carries a natural patina, subtly reflecting light and emphasizing the geometric, fan-shaped form of the handle. Angular lines define the silhouette, while the wide, shallow bowl and seamless construction highlight the solidity of its making. Slightly beveled edges and stepped details on the handle embody the era's fascination with symmetry and stylized motifs. Fine scratches and gentle marks, consistent with age and use, are present on the surface, enhancing its authentic, historical character. The absence of ornate engravings or decorations underscores the minimalist, refined aesthetic of the piece. Condition: very good, with subtle traces of time and no significant damage or repairs.This object tells the story of an era when function and ornamentation coexisted—a time when modernist ideals permeated daily rituals. The cool silver of the scoop recalls prewar parlors, where every detail mattered and even simple accessories carried an ambition for style. The distinctly fan-shaped, stepped handle speaks to the period's fascination with geometry and clarity of form, so emblematic of Art Deco.The scoop would suit a classic dining table made of dark wood, alongside porcelain dinnerware or a heavy glass decanter. It can be paired with a geometric candlestick or crystal bowl to create a cohesive Art Deco-inspired composition. In a contemporary setting, it serves as a subtle accent on a minimalist tray or open shelf, highlighting an appreciation for detail and refined historical references.
