This sugar bowl from the 1930s, crafted with a silver-plated brass basket and a thick glass insert, exemplifies the tableware craftsmanship of interwar Europe. The metal basket presents a cool, darkened silver hue with visible patina and areas of iridescent tarnish, while its matte finish and signs of oxidation emphasize the piece’s authenticity and age. A prominent, raised braided band encircles the lower part, providing a classic decorative accent in the neoclassical tradition. The clear glass insert is robust and cylindrical, featuring a rim adorned with evenly spaced, rounded indentations that create a subtle, undulating effect. The proportions are carefully balanced, and the glass fits snugly within the metal frame, ensuring solidity. The condition is good: the metal shows patina and light surface wear but no major dents or damage, and the glass remains intact without chips or cracks.The form of this sugar bowl channels the spirit of the 1930s, when neoclassical influences appeared in everyday European homes as restrained yet refined details echoing ancient motifs. The silver-plated brass speaks of a composed dignity at the table, while the braided ornament hints at symmetry and timeless attention to craft. The scalloped glass rim catches the light, casting gentle shadows across the table—suggesting the quiet anticipation of an afternoon tea ritual.This piece could be displayed on a classic tray of enameled metal or porcelain, accompanied by simple, geometric-patterned cups and small silver spoons.
