This sugar dispenser from the 1970s is a representative example of Polish utilitarian design with postmodern influences. The body is crafted from clear pressed glass with a subtly cool undertone, featuring an embossed geometric grid pattern that gives the surface a distinctive tactile and visual texture. The glass has a glossy finish, enhancing its clarity. The lid and pouring spout are made of silver-plated brass, with a smooth, polished, and reflective surface. The cylindrical lid fits securely onto the glass base, fastened by two small side holes, while the angled spout allows for precise dispensing of sugar. The proportions are well-balanced—a broad base gently tapers towards the top, forming a harmonious silhouette typical of Central European domestic objects of the era. The piece is in good condition: the glass is free from chips and cracks, and the metal elements show only minimal signs of use, with no evidence of restoration.This sugar dispenser echoes the everyday rhythm of 1970s Poland: it speaks of pragmatism touched with subtle ornamentation. The embossed grid pattern recalls the ordered simplicity of tableware from the era, when a modest geometric motif could add a sense of structure and visual rhythm to the domestic setting. The silver-plated brass catches the light, conjuring scenes of family gatherings where form and function were seamlessly intertwined. The piece carries the quiet aesthetic of Polish postwar design—decorative, but always restrained—evoking the memory of shared conversations over tea and a sense of measured harmony.It could
