French Art Deco modernist bonbonnière (or biscuit jar), dating from the interwar period, circa 1925–1935. This piece exemplifies the transition from geometric Art Deco toward the sleek, dynamic lines of the Streamline Moderne movement.

Lid & Finish: The matching polished gold-toned metal lid is decorated with clean concentric rings, topped with a minimalist central wooden finial knob.

Functionality: A quintessential luxury object of the interwar modernist interior, originally crafted for serving sweets, bonbons, or dragées on an elegant salon ta
