This sugar bowl from 1877, originating from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, exemplifies the eclectic style of the late 19th century. It is finished in a cool, medium silver tone with a slightly matte surface, featuring a wide, flat rim, a subtly flared body, and a rounded base. The most distinctive elements are the two robust, symmetrical handles with geometric, angular forms and stylized scrolls that lend the piece an architectural rhythm. Visible seams and careful soldering at the handle joins highlight the precision of craftsmanship. Areas of natural patina, darkened spots, and fine abrasions on the surface attest to its authenticity and age. There are no dents or major damages, and all original elements are preserved. The overall condition is very good, with no signs of recent restoration.The form of this sugar bowl evokes the spirit of the late 19th century—a time when eclecticism enabled the fusion of architectural inspiration and everyday craftsmanship. The angular handles and balanced body tell of an era when even tableware reflected urban ambitions and a sense of ordered elegance. The matte finish and traces of age suggest it has witnessed many gatherings, quietly accompanying tea and coffee conversations in the salons of old Vienna.This sugar bowl can be paired with classic porcelain in white or soft pastels to accentuate its cool tones and geometric silhouette. It would suit both historically inspired settings and eclectic, collector’s interiors, where combining it with warm woods or glass surfaces enhances the subtle play of light on the metal. It is worth matching with other antique table accessories or minimalist accents to create a balanced dialogue between past and present.
