ABOUT PRODUCTID 20605
These Art Deco table tongs, produced by the Bracia Henneberg manufactory in Warsaw in the 1930s, are crafted from white metal with a galvanic coating. Their cool, silvery tone and subtly satin sheen are characteristic of the era. The surface is smooth and even, gently reflecting light, while geometric, angular lines and faceted gripping ends define the design. The arms display a delicate, embossed diamond motif—a decorative accent typical of Art Deco. The construction features a robust hinge and integrated spring, ensuring smooth operation. Proportions are carefully balanced: elongated arms and wide, flat gripping tips measure 18 cm in length. The tongs retain all original elements, showing no signs of wear, dents, or restoration. Condition: very good, with no visible scratches or discoloration.This piece tells a story of urban refinement from the interwar years—a time when table accessories were both functional and an expression of cultivated taste. The geometric form and subtle ornament evoke the atmosphere of 1930s Warsaw salons: light plays across the metallic surface, recalling attention to detail and the rituals of communal dining. These tongs might whisper of cosmopolitan gatherings, where every gesture and object carried significance.In an interior, the tongs can be paired with period porcelain or contemporary minimal tableware, creating an engaging dialogue between styles. They would suit a classic dining room, highlighting the table’s sophistication, or a minimalist kitchen, where their geometric silhouette serves as a discreet accent. Consider combining them with other metal accessories—such as chromed candlesticks or a silver-toned service—to achieve a coherent, refined composition.
