About the Item

Swedish Art Deco Pewter, Bakelite, and Brass Lidded Box by GAB, 1935 A refined and elegant lidded box by Guldsmedsaktiebolaget (GAB), Sweden’s premier silversmiths and metalware manufacturer, crafted in 1935 (hallmarked I8). This striking piece combines pewter, deep black bakelite, and brass in a sleek, geometric Art Deco design. Originally intended for storing gaming chips, the lid is adorned with charming brass inlays depicting the four card suits — spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs. Today, its functionality extends beyond the gaming table, making it a perfect container for jewelry, cufflinks, keys, or other small treasures. The box exemplifies the streamlined elegance of the Art Deco era, with its clean lines, sophisticated materials, and balanced proportions. A beautiful and versatile collector’s item that bridges decorative appeal with everyday practicality. GAB, founded in 1867 in Stockholm, became one of Scandinavia’s most celebrated producers of silver, pewter, and fine metalware. Known for collaborating with leading Swedish designers and embracing contemporary styles, the company’s Art Deco creations from the 1920s and 1930s are especially sought after by collectors worldwide. Wear consistent with age and use.
