This powdered sugar shaker from the Art Nouveau period, originating in Sweden in the 1920s, exemplifies Scandinavian applied arts of the early twentieth century. The body is made from clear pressed glass with a subtle, cool tone, decorated with an etched floral motif. The organic, flowing lines and the slightly flared base reflect the Art Nouveau pursuit of harmony between form and function. The silver-plated brass lid has a rounded, domed profile with a polished, mirror-like finish, featuring areas of patina and light tarnishing consistent with age. The construction is simple and practical; the lid fits securely onto the glass body, and the overall proportions are compact and stable. The piece is in good vintage condition, displaying minor signs of use and patina typical for authentic antiques.This sugar shaker carries the quiet voice of Swedish Art Nouveau—subtle, yet unwavering in its affection for nature and detail. The transparent glass, smooth to the touch, reflects light like a tranquil lake, while the floral patterns seem to narrate stories of early 20th-century daily rituals. The silver-plated lid brings a note of bygone festive gatherings, where each tableware element held meaning, and the gentle patina marks the passage of time without reducing the object's purpose.The shaker can be displayed in a classic dining room, set on a wooden console or within a glass cabinet alongside porcelain and glassware from the same era. It pairs well with early 20th-century tea sets, geometric brass trays, or additional clear glass vessels. This piece also suits eclectic collector interiors, where historic details meet modern influences. For a decorative touch, it may be combined with a linen napkin and a bouquet of wildflowers to highlight its ornamental quality.
