ABOUT PRODUCTID 20396
This French toothpick holder from the late 19th to early 20th century combines a rectangular, cut crystal insert with an ornate silver-plated brass base, featuring a gilded interior. The design displays Belle Époque aesthetics with neoclassical and Rococo Revival influences—seen in the relief decorations: a central medallion with ribbon bow, floral garlands, and a diamond lattice along the lower edge. The base rests on four short, outward-curving legs with ball feet, lending it stability and refined proportions. The surface of the metal has a semi-matte, silvery tone with a subtle aged patina, while the transparent crystal insert catches the light, highlighting the detailed craftsmanship. Materials include silver- and gold-plated brass and cut crystal. Width: 5.5 cm; length: 7 cm; height: 5 cm. Condition is very good: all original elements are intact, with only minor signs of age such as light darkening and gentle wear to the metal surface, and no visible damage.This compact piece embodies the spirit of French Belle Époque, a time when even everyday objects were given artistic expression. The ornamentation evokes the ambiance of turn-of-the-century salons—an era where a toothpick holder could serve as a testament to craftsmanship and refined taste. The crystal insert reflects light like a pool among silvery garlands, while the gilded interior adds a gentle illumination, reminiscent of elegant gatherings and the sophistication of French table traditions.The holder may be displayed on a classic console or as a centerpiece on a dining table, paired with pastel-toned porcelain or Art Deco glassware. It suits both historically inspired interiors and more contemporary spaces, where it can serve as a discreet accent that highlights a collector’s approach to table settings. Consider combining it with other metal accessories with delicate ornamentation to emphasize its decorative function.
