ABOUT PRODUCTID 6700
This decorative box, crafted in Czechoslovakia during the 1920s, exemplifies early Art Deco design in ruby red crystal glass. Its rectangular form, measuring 7 × 11 × 8 cm, is composed of solid, high-quality crystal with a lustrous, highly polished surface that reflects light with jewel-like intensity. Both the lid and body feature precise, planar geometric cuts, while the sharply faceted edges emphasize the period's fascination with pure line and symmetry. The base is adorned with a starburst motif, visible through the transparent glass. The absence of visible hardware or hinges accentuates the clarity of form and meticulous execution. The condition is described as very good—there are no chips, scratches, or signs of wear on the glass.This box expresses the spirit of the 1920s—a period when geometry and luxury intertwined in everyday objects, and ruby glass signaled cultivated taste. The smooth surface and crisp, polished edges evoke the atmosphere of grand salons, where lamplight would dance across glass surfaces like jewels. Here, crystal becomes a vessel of aspiration—a discreet symbol of status shaped by disciplined design.The box may be displayed on a dark wood sideboard, where material contrast brings out the depth of its color. It works well in interiors inspired by Art Deco, but also complements eclectic, collector's spaces—paired with mirrored trays, porcelain trinkets, or lamps with geometric silhouettes. It is worth combining with muted textiles to let the ruby red glass take center stage within the arrangement.
