ABOUT PRODUCTID 20022
This silver-plated brass sugar bowl from the 1920s is an example of Polish Art Deco craftsmanship, likely produced by Norblin. The vessel’s form is defined by geometric harmony: a wide base transitions smoothly into a gently tapering body, with subtly flared walls characteristic of the era. Symmetrical handles on either side are adorned with stylized, segmented details reminiscent of bamboo or rod motifs—a restrained decorative accent. The flat lid features a central, rounded knob and a small notch for a spoon. The overall color is a cool, slightly warm silver with a matte, aged finish; natural patina, discoloration, and minor scratches are visible, consistent with antique silver-plated objects. Construction remains solid, with visible seams at the handle joints and balanced proportions. The condition is good for its age: no significant dents or structural damages, but clear evidence of use and natural wear, with all original elements retained and no visible restoration.This sugar bowl quietly narrates the spirit of Polish Art Deco—a movement seeking equilibrium between utility and discreet decoration. Its matte surface and restrained silhouette evoke the salons of interwar Warsaw, where everyday objects gained distinction through subtle detailing and artisan skill. The handles, with their bamboo-inspired segments, hint at the era’s fascination with the Orient in European design, while the softly tarnished silver carries the memory of decades—each spot and scratch the mark
