Mid-Century Aluminium & Alabaster Bowl, c. 1930s–1950s
A sculptural bowl combining patinated aluminium with a solid, hand-turned alabaster interior.
The softly translucent stone reveals delicate natural veining, creating a quiet contrast to the industrial exterior.
Elegant yet functional, this piece reflects early modernist design with subtle Art Deco sensibility. Beautiful as a fruit bowl or as a sculptural centrepiece, where light gently activates the alabaster surface.
A timeless object balancing material strength and natural softness.
