ABOUT PRODUCTID 20047
This late 19th-century Polish sugar bowl is crafted in the eclectic style typical of the historicist period. The body, made of brass and finished with silver plating, features a cool, reflective sheen enhanced by a smooth surface and subtle patina. Its rectangular form with softly rounded corners is complemented by a gently domed lid, while beaded borders run horizontally along the top and bottom edges, providing a refined linear accent. The sugar bowl stands on four ornate cabriole legs adorned with leaf motifs, a hallmark of eclectic design blending neoclassical and rococo influences. A small central element on the front suggests a lock or decorative feature. The piece is in very good condition, displaying only minimal signs of use and no major damage or repairs.The form of this sugar bowl evokes the atmosphere of late 19th-century parlors, where the silvery sheen of metal reflected lamplight and the quiet conversations of tea gatherings. Its balanced proportions and ornamental details speak of an era when tableware was a mark of status and everyday rituals were meticulously observed. The cabriole legs, like subtle gestures from bygone artisans, seem to invite the celebration of shared moments, while the delicate patina hints at each touch revealing a fragment of history.This sugar bowl may be paired with turn-of-the-century porcelain to create a richer narrative for an eclectic table setting. It would work well displayed on a classic dark wood tray alongside silver-plated spoons and glass accents. Interiors with a historic or collector’s character—particularly those inspired by late 19th-century English or French styles—would best showcase its decorative value. It can also be integrated into more eclectic arrangements, where juxtaposed with contemporary ceramics, it highlights the dialogue between traditional craftsmanship and modern simplicity.
