ABOUT PRODUCTID 43041
This modernist toothpick holder (model 110), attributed to Julia Keilowa, was produced by Bracia Henneberg Plated and Bronze Works in Warsaw during the 1930s. Crafted from silver-plated brass, it retains a cool, metallic silver tone and a subtly matte surface. The construction is defined by a slender, perfectly cylindrical body elevated on three flat, circular discs serving as legs. The minimalist form accentuates geometric discipline and the functionalist spirit of the era, with a clear BR. HENNEBERG WARSZAWA signature and model number 110 stamped on the underside, confirming authenticity. The surface is smooth, bearing gentle scratches and a natural patina, with no deformations or damage. Preserved in very good, original condition, with all elements authentic.This small object resonates with the spirit of 1930s Polish modernism: austerity of form and nobility of material meet in a dialogue of sculptural restraint and function. Every detail—from the cylinder’s proportions to the placement of the discs—speaks in the architectural precision characteristic of Julia Keilowa’s work. It is the voice of an era that celebrated radical simplicity, with silvery reflections and the natural patina of time echoing the salons of the Second Polish Republic.The holder can be paired with other examples of geometric Polish plateware, especially in a collector’s arrangement alongside Keilowa’s designs or other Art Deco pieces.
