This openwork napkin holder in the shape of a fan was produced by Bracia Henneberg in Warsaw, dating from the 1920s–1930s. Made of galvanized brass with a silvery, slightly matte finish, it features a uniform surface with a subtle patina. The intricate pierced design, inspired by Art Deco, forms a symmetrical, gently curved silhouette; cleanly cut edges and discreet joints attest to the craftsmanship. The bottom bears the manufacturer's signature and catalog number. The piece measures 7.6 cm in height, 13 cm in length, and 2.1 cm in width. It is preserved in very good condition, with no visible damages or dents—only a delicate patina appropriate to its age.The form of this object tells the story of Polish Art Deco—a time when function met decoration. The fan shape evokes the atmosphere of interwar Warsaw, where everyday accessories took on artistic qualities. The cool sheen of galvanized brass speaks the language of 1920s modernity, while the openwork motif appears as a frozen gesture, a subtle nod to geometry and stylized botanical influences.The napkin holder can be placed on a styled dining or living room table in a modernist or eclectic vintage interior. It pairs well with porcelain tableware featuring geometric decoration, period glassware, or minimalist metal accents. It may be combined with other silvery accessories to emphasize its cool refinement, or displayed against dark wood to highlight the contrast of its openwork details. In an Art Deco-inspired setting, it is worth pairing with geometric runners or textiles from the 1920s to accentuate the collectible character of the piece.
