ABOUT PRODUCTID 19921
This mid-century modern sugar bowl, crafted in Poland in the 1960s, is made from silver-plated brass with a cool, satin-finished silver surface that has a slightly muted sheen. The design features a distinctly spherical, geometric body free from ornamentation, expressing the era’s clarity and the modernist pursuit of pure form. The domed lid fits perfectly onto the bowl and is topped with a small, flared conical knob for comfortable handling. A matching silver-plated spoon rests in a dedicated notch in the lid, providing both a practical and visually harmonious detail. The flat, slightly recessed base lends stability to the piece. Subtle abrasions and a gentle patina, typical of age and careful use, are present on the surface but do not detract from the overall utility. The sugar bowl remains in very good condition, with no major dents or structural damage.This object captures the spirit of the 1960s, when Polish metalwork gravitated toward purity of line and functional logic over decorative excess. Its spherical shape, cool silver tone, and minimalist silhouette tell the story of a time that valued discipline and a trust in geometry. The sugar bowl reflects light like a small mirror, each considered detail—from the handle to the included spoon—exemplifying restrained elegance and a respect for function.It could be paired with minimalist porcelain or other tableware featuring geometric lines, as well as smoky-toned glass accessories, to highlight the contrast of materials and reinforce its modernist roots. In interiors styled in the mid-century modern tradition or in contemporary, pared-back settings, this piece would introduce a balanced accent of craftsmanship. Combining it with matte wood, raw ceramics, or simple dinnerware would allow its metallic form to stand out subtly against a composed, understated backdrop.
