This toothpick holder, crafted in Spain in the 1950s, takes the form of a predatory fish rendered in cool, silvery metal with a highly reflective, mirror-like finish. The piece exemplifies mid-century tabletop craftsmanship with clear Art Deco influences, seen in the sharply defined scales, geometric stylized fins, and the wide-open mouth featuring a vivid red interior. The solid, compact construction is highlighted by smooth surfaces and visible seams that speak to artisanal precision. Red cabochon-like eyes add a bold, whimsical accent, enhancing the piece’s decorative character. Functionally, the open mouth serves as a practical compartment for storing toothpicks. The item is preserved in very good condition, with no dents, scratches, or visible wear; the metallic sheen and all decorative elements remain intact.This compact object carries the voice of a 1950s Spanish table—dynamic, expressive, infused with both humor and a touch of distance.

The holder brings to the table a sense of historical craftsmanship and mid-century imagination, blending classical precision with a modern twist.It could be used as a distinctive
