This antique meat skewer, dating from around 1890–1900 and most likely produced by a Warsaw manufacturer, is a testament to the traditions of fine dining and craftsmanship of its era. Made from white metal with a silver-plated finish, it displays a cool, subtly matte silver tone with natural patina and gentle darkening in the recesses. The handle is crowned with a three-dimensional, naturalistically rendered figure of a deer standing atop a small, rounded base. Below the deer, ornate scroll motifs evoke the historicist and eclectic styles of the late 19th century. The slender shaft, partially twisted, offers both decorative appeal and an improved grip, tapering smoothly to a sharp point. The proportions are carefully balanced: the decorative, weighty handle contrasts with the slender, functional line of the shaft. The surface is mainly smooth, with crisp detailing on the deer and ornamental motifs. The skewer is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damage or repairs, only minor traces of use and an authentic patina that highlights its antique character.In this object echoes the atmosphere of bourgeois households at the turn of the century, where every detail of the dining table
