This Art Deco sugar caster dates from 1930 and belongs to the Art Deco period. The piece combines solid sterling silver, cut glass, and enamel in silver, clear, and black colours. The vessel possesses a faceted cut-glass body decorated with black geometric enamel details in hourglass and triangular patterns, topped with a domed, pierced sterling silver lid with geometric cut-outs. The silver top bears hallmarks for Birmingham 1936 alongside maker marks for S&M, and the silver rim displays faint marks from age. The sugar caster measures 12.8 cm tall. In a contemporary home, this caster fits well placed on a dining table, sideboard top, or a kitchen counter during meal service or afternoon tea. The clean lines and geometric motifs suit modern or traditional interiors where small decorative tableware items add functional elegance. Collectors of silver, glass, or Art Deco items find it a practical display piece for a cabinet or tabletop.

FAQs

Emerging during the 1920s and 1930s, Art Deco sugar casters updated traditional dining accessories with bold geometric forms, faceted cut glass, and streamlined silver mounts reflecting the industrial design movement of the era.

These pieces were typically constructed using heavy cut lead crystal or glass bases paired with hallmarked sterling silver mounts, featuring hand-pierced top covers and occasional vitreous enamel decorative accents.

Authentic items display official British assay office hallmarks stamped into the metal, which include a makers mark, purity mark, city mark, and a specific date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

Position the caster on a dining sideboard, drinks trolley, or bar cart alongside contemporary glassware to function as an architectural tableware accent.

Wash the glass reservoir using mild soapy water, and polish silver components gently with a dry cotton cloth and specialised non-abrasive silver paste, avoiding full submersion of enameled parts.
