ABOUT PRODUCTID 42488
This Art Deco sugar bowl, produced in Norway in the 1930s and marked by NY Silver, exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship characteristic of the era. The bowl is made of brass, repeatedly plated with silver, resulting in a cool, mirror-like sheen. Two black ebonite handles with scalloped edges provide a bold contrast and graphic accent, in keeping with the modernist aesthetic of the 1930s. The silhouette is geometric and balanced, with a wide, subtly flared rim and a gently tapering base that emphasize the vessel's minimalist nature. The domed lid is topped with a spherical silver finial, and the construction is seamless, with no visible joints or fasteners. The sugar bowl is preserved in very good condition, showing no visible signs of wear; the silver plating is even and intact.This vessel seems to tell the story of an era when modernism met the decorative spirit of Art Deco. Its cool gleam and decisive lines might echo the voice of Norwegian craftsmanship from the 1930s: "I am both an object of daily use and a small piece of table architecture. My form plays with light, while the contrast between the handles and the body recalls a time when function and aesthetics intertwined."The sugar bowl can be displayed on both classic and contemporary tables—pairing well with geometric-patterned porcelain, glass serving pieces, or minimalist chrome or steel accessories. It brings a discreet historical accent to interiors inspired by Art Deco, modernism, or subtle eclecticism. It could be combined with tableware of simple lines and neutral colors to highlight its graphic character, or juxtaposed with warm wood to emphasize the interplay of materials.Height: 12 cm, width: 12 cm, diameter: 12 cm. Constructed from brass and silver with ebonite handles. The piece is
