This Swedish jam or sugar bowl from the 1930s is crafted from clear, hand-cut glass with a gently faceted, geometric silhouette. The glass is adorned with an etched, diagonal leaf or chevron motif, lending a subtle, tactile texture to its glossy surface, which enhances its clarity and refracts light along the crisp edges. The silver-plated brass mount includes a hinged lid with a slot for a spoon, a rounded finial, and a broad, arched handle secured with visible rivets. The metal shows a delicate, time-acquired patina and minor surface wear characteristic of age. Its balanced proportions—a broad, stable base that tapers gently towards the top—reflect the late Art Deco style. An authentic maker’s mark is present on the rim. The condition is very good: there are no chips or cracks to the glass, only minor signs of use on the metal elements.The vessel’s form speaks to the 1930s, when Scandinavian modernism embraced the refinement of late Art Deco. Its geometric body and rhythmic glass pattern evoke a dialogue between light and shadow, as if each etched leaf transforms the everyday act of serving jam or sugar into a subtle ritual. The patina of the silver-plated brass and the weight of the hand-cut glass recall the ambiance of elegant cafés from a bygone era, where function and understated ornamentation went hand in hand.This piece can be placed on a classic dark wood breakfast tray or paired with porcelain tableware featuring geometric decoration to highlight its Art Deco heritage. It would work well in both retro-inspired and minimalist interiors with a vintage touch; pairing it with chromed
