ABOUT PRODUCTID 19348
This lemon stand, dating from the 1930s, is an example of German craftsmanship in the Art Deco style, made from silver-plated brass. The composition is anchored by a solid, circular base adorned with a repeating engraved pattern of stylised shells or petals, expressing the era’s geometric rhythm. A slender, subtly flared stem elegantly elevates the wide, shallow bowl, which is distinguished by a refined relief band circling the rim. The overall effect is a cool, muted silver hue with a soft matte-satin finish. The surface of the bowl and stem bears scattered fine scratches, natural patina, and typical marks of age intrinsic to authentic vintage metalwork. The construction remains compact and undamaged, with no visible repairs or losses. The condition is very good—only traces of use remain in the form of matte sheen and minor abrasions.This compact object speaks with the voice of the 1930s, a time when everyday functionality was intertwined with cultivated decoration. Its balanced form—stripped of excess yet attentive to detail—evokes interiors where even utilitarian objects were dignified. The cool gleam of silvered brass, softened by patches of patina, reflects the period’s faith in longevity and in the rhythmic, precise traditions of skilled metalworking. This lemon stand continues to celebrate the simple gesture—reminding us that even the smallest rituals can be graced by a touch of refinement.The piece may be paired with porcelain or glassware featuring clean, geometric lines, typical of 1920s and 1930s modernism. It would also suit arrangements with subtle crystal accents or a white tablecloth on a buffet or sideboard within an Art Deco or interwar collector’s interior. In a more contemporary space, it could
