About the Item

A stunning example of Swedish Modern design, this rare lidded box was crafted by Carl Einar Borgström for Ystad Metall in the 1930s. Made of solid brass, it showcases an elegant, minimalist form with a beautifully aged patina that adds to its vintage charm. The highlight of this piece is the decorative silver-toned finial, intricately designed with an organic motif, creating a striking contrast against the warm golden brass. This functional yet sculptural piece reflects the craftsmanship and refined aesthetic of Swedish design from the early 20th century.
