This early 20th-century Prussian sugar shaker embodies the eclectic spirit of European tableware, blending geometric precision with refined materials. The main body, crafted from clear, colorless glass, features a faceted hexagonal form with sharply cut vertical panels and chevron motifs near the base. The highly polished surface enhances the clarity and brilliance of the glass, capturing and reflecting light with every angle. The lid, made of silver or silver-plated metal, stands out with its matte, subtly aged patina and visible lathe marks, indicative of hand-finishing. The robust, compact silhouette and wide, threaded cap ensure both practicality and secure closure. The vessel’s proportions are balanced, with a sturdy base that gently tapers upward. The piece is in very good condition, with no visible chips or cracks—only minor surface wear consistent with its age.Within this sugar shaker echoes the voice of a turn-of-the-century era, where geometric discipline met the decorative artistry of cut glass and the sophistication of metallic accents. The glass, vivid and luminous, recalls domestic rituals and the understated luxury of tables set with intention. The silvered lid, touched by a gentle patina, speaks of a time when even everyday objects were markers of taste and social standing. This object seems to whisper of a world where tradition and early modernity danced together in a subtle play of form and light.It can be paired with porcelain tableware in the spirit of eclecticism or classic Art Deco, highlighting the rhythm of the glass’s geometric lines. It would work well as a functional piece at a breakfast table or as a decorative accent on a console in the living or dining room. For a harmonious composition inspired by the early 20th century
