This openwork fan-shaped napkin holder was crafted by Bracia Henneberg in Warsaw during the 1920s, representing the Art Deco style with subtle late Secessionist influences. Made from brass and silver-plated, the piece reveals soft golden undertones where the silver layer has gently worn over time. The overall surface is smooth with a matte-satin finish, while the intricate pierced pattern features symmetrical floral and arabesque motifs. Scalloped, undulating edges accentuate the fan silhouette, and the proportions are balanced: a wide base supports a gently arched top, resting on four small rounded feet. The underside bears the manufacturer's mark and catalog number. In very good condition, the napkin holder displays only minor signs of age—light patina and minimal surface scratches—typical of carefully preserved functional objects from its era.This piece quietly evokes the atmosphere of interwar Warsaw, where the unfolding of a napkin was both a daily gesture and an invitation to conversation. Its fan-like form and delicate openwork allude to salon culture, while the silver hue softly reflects light, conjuring images of afternoon tea and moments of pause. Organic motifs seem to encourage a closer look, inviting appreciation of the artistry embedded in everyday rituals.The napkin holder can be displayed on a classic dining table made of walnut or mahogany, highlighting the refinement of a table setting. It would also work well as an accent in a modern, minimalist interior, especially when paired with chromed candlesticks or glassware with clean
