This HEFRA sugar bowl from 1970s Poland exemplifies postmodern design, blending silver-plated brass with a cool, matte patina and a transparent, cut-glass bowl. The bowl features a geometric diamond pattern that catches the light, offering a striking contrast to the subdued metal frame. Decorative, hand-formed scrollwork—typical of the new look and postmodern style—shapes the frame and handle, while four curled feet echo the scroll motif and provide stability. The proportions are harmonious and every detail is carefully resolved. The condition is good, with minor patina and natural signs of age on the metal, but no visible damage or repairs.The form of this sugar bowl narrates a decade when tradition met a new freedom in design. Silver-toned brass and cut glass engage in a dialogue reminiscent of different eras, with the slightly irregular handle and decorative scrolls suggesting a playful approach to convention and a knowing wink at craft history. Drawing on traditional techniques, the bowl is reimagined for the 1970s—a time when design in Poland embraced both boldness and eclecticism.The sugar bowl could find its place on a classically set table or in a setting that celebrates postmodern playfulness. It can be paired with simple-line porcelain or colorful glassware to highlight the decorative metalwork. On a console or sideboard, alongside 1970s candelabra or minimalist ceramics, it brings a collectible character and subtly brightens the space with glass reflections. In an eclectic interior, it may be juxtaposed with contemporary objects, creating a dialogue between past and present.
