This modernist ladle from Denmark, crafted in the 1960s, is made of brass with a layer of silver plating. Its surface presents a subdued, cool-toned silver with a distinct patina and oxidation, creating a mottled interplay of lighter and darker tones; subtle golden-brass highlights emerge where the plating has worn. The finish is predominantly matte, with areas of natural sheen resulting from use. The bowl is minimalist and hemispherical with smooth lines and a slightly asymmetrical rim, a hallmark of Scandinavian mid-century modernism. The handle is gracefully arched and tightly wrapped in black wire or cord, offering both a functional, non-slip grip and a striking visual accent. The seamless connection between the handle and bowl, with no visible screws, underscores the quality of craftsmanship. The proportions are harmonious, balancing practical function with decorative appeal. Condition: very good, with visible signs of use, local wear to the silver plating, and natural patina, but no significant dents or structural damage.This ladle echoes the voice of Danish modernism of the 1960s: its form is restrained yet firmly rooted in an era that valued utility and the inherent beauty of materials. The silvered surface, gently worn over decades, tells stories of everyday rituals at the table—each gesture imbued with quiet assurance. The black-wrapped handle introduces a graphic rhythm, characteristic of Scandinavian
