ABOUT PRODUCTID 20045
This silver-plated brass podstakannik from 1930s Germany exemplifies the craftsmanship of the Art Deco era. Its surface features a cool, slightly matte silver tone with visible patina and darker tarnished areas that attest to its authenticity and age. The body is adorned with vertical fluting and regular, geometric indentations at the lower section, enhancing the structured, period-appropriate character. The upper rim is finished with a subtle beaded border. The slender, elegantly curved handle is attached with visible rivets – a detail in line with the technical standards of the 1930s. Proportions are balanced: a gently flared top and a rounded, bulbous base. The texture is smooth to the touch, showing minor scratches, areas of dullness, and use-related marks, but there are no major damages or signs of repair. Condition: good, with natural patina and traces of time.The podstakannik narrates the story of German Art Deco – speaking in a language of discipline and function, where geometric divisions and restrained ornamentation meet the daily ritual of tea. The slender, gently arched handle evokes an era when even the simplest gesture at the table was meaningful, while the matte silver recalls the diffused light of a 1930s salon. The fluting and beading reveal a love of detail, encapsulating the spirit of interwar modernism.This piece can be used in both classic and contemporary table settings – it pairs well with porcelain featuring geometric patterns, thick glass tumblers, or minimalist dinnerware. It is worth combining it with other silvered or chromed accessories to accentuate the cool hue of the metal. It works well in collector’s interiors with Art Deco elements or in eclectic spaces, where it can serve as a subtle accent among modern forms and classic materials.
