ABOUT PRODUCTID 2633
This modernist sugar bowl from the 1950s is a fine example of French glassmaking, crafted from high-quality, clear crystal. Its distinctive triangular form is defined by crisp, geometric lines, while the meticulously polished surface enhances the natural brilliance of the glass. The top is adorned with radiating cuts and stepped patterns, lending depth and a sense of movement without sacrificing functionality. The construction is seamless, with sharp yet safe edges and a flat, stable base. The piece is preserved in excellent condition, showing no signs of wear, damage, or restoration. The sugar bowl embodies the spirit of the 1950s—a period when French modernism boldly experimented with new forms and the interplay of light. The crystal, structured into a triangular block, captures every ray of daylight, refracting it into dynamic reflections. Its sharp lines and graphic cuts recall the architectural inspirations of its era, when transparency and simplicity heralded a new modern sensibility. Even when empty, the piece draws the eye, suggesting that daily rituals can be imbued with a near-ceremonial presence. This sugar bowl would be well-suited to a minimalist tray of pale wood or marble, paired with modern porcelain cups and simple chrome cutlery. It can be combined with other geometrically shaped vessels to highlight a modernist aesthetic, or set alongside a classic tablecloth and glass decanters to create a subtle dialogue between past and present. Suitable for a living room coffee service or a breakfast table, its pure form and play of light lend everyday moments a sense of refined simplicity.
