This fan-shaped napkin holder was crafted in the 1930s by Fraget’s silver-plating workshops in Warsaw, representing late interwar Polish Art Deco. Made of silver-plated brass, it displays a cool, silvery tone with a satin, slightly muted sheen and subtle warm undertones. The openwork fan silhouette features symmetrical, engraved floral and foliate motifs, with a central flower accent. Smoothly rounded edges and two stylized, slightly splayed feet provide stability and reinforce the blend of geometric and organic lines. The original maker’s mark and catalog number on the underside confirm its authenticity. The construction is precise and seamless, with no visible screws or rivets. The piece is in very good condition; only minimal signs of use are apparent, with no dents or deep scratches. Gentle surface darkening is consistent with age, and there are no visible traces of restoration.Within this modest object, the echoes of 1930s Warsaw can be sensed—an era when refined tableware bridged function with decorative sophistication in urban salons and cafés. The fan shape and pierced details seem to narrate tales of metropolitan elegance and the care invested in everyday rituals. Every line and ornament recalls a time when even the most essential table accessory was a testament to craftsmanship and personal style. The napkin holder quietly conjures memories of afternoon tea, where light softly played across its silvery finish.It can be paired with period porcelain, glass dessert bowls, or minimalist accessories to highlight the contrast between historical form and contemporary context. The napkin holder works well on a classically set dining table
