About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This plated brass sugar bowl is a distinguished 19th-century creation by the Henneberg Brothers, originating from Warsaw, Poland. The piece exemplifies the refined metalwork of the era, featuring a classic rectangular silhouette with a hinged lid and an elegant escutcheon complete with its original key. Crafted from brass and originally finished with silver plating, the box demonstrates traditional manufacturing techniques of Eastern European silversmiths. The exterior displays an intricate engraved cartouche on the lid, while the base rests upon four spherical feet. The underside bears the authentic maker's mark, reading B. Henneberg Warszawa, confirming its historical provenance and production origin. The sugar bowl remains in good, functional condition, bearing the authentic character of its considerable age. The silver plating has gracefully worn over time, revealing the warm golden tones of the underlying brass and creating a rich, dual-toned patina. The hinge and lock mechanism remain intact, preserving the structural integrity of the piece. This historical object serves as a sophisticated addition to a curated dining room or a classic study. It functions beautifully as a traditional sugar receptacle or as a distinguished decorative box for storing small valuables upon a console or dressing table.
