ABOUT PRODUCTID 11670
This eclectic 19th-century creamer, crafted by the Warsaw-based Fraget manufactory between 1850 and 1860, exemplifies tableware craftsmanship in which decorative flair meets everyday function. Made of copper plated with silver, it presents a cool, silvery tone with a slightly matte finish, transitioning into areas of darker patina and oxidation, particularly around the handle and base. The bulbous body with its rounded base flows smoothly into a gently flared spout, designed for comfortable pouring. The handle, featuring asymmetrical rococo scrolls, accentuates the decorative aspect of the piece. The surface displays fine scratches, minor dents, and natural discoloration, all highlighting the object’s authentic antique character. The structure remains robust, with no modern repairs; all components are original. Condition: good – with evident signs of age and a patina typical for an item of this period.The form echoes the voice of mid-19th-century Warsaw bourgeoisie, when Fraget granted everyday table objects a refined silhouette inspired by European decorative trends. The silvery sheen, tempered by matte patina, conjures images of morning light reflecting off porcelain tableware. The ornate handle seems to invite the ritual of serving coffee or tea—gestures repeated across generations, their subtle traces etched into the metal’s surface.The Fraget creamer may be paired with other silver or porcelain accessories on a classic tray to create an intimate coffee corner in a living room. It would fit both in an eclectic collector's interior and against the backdrop of an antique sideboard or stylized table. Combining it with crystal glassware, a linen napkin, or a single stem in a small vase would further emphasize its decorative yet utilitarian character.
