Amazing 20s goldfinch on powder jar/half doll related

$150 USDAmazing 20s goldfinch on powder jar/half doll related

Collectibles:Vanity Items:Powder Jar
This powder jar or trinket box is something you will not see every day: a bright orange round bowl with a lovely handpainted goldfinch perched on top of it! This jar was made from heavy porcelain during the art deco period, probably in Germany judging by its quality. It has a diameter of 4'' (10cm) and is 5¼ (13½ cm) high. Number 5635 is incised underneath the base. It is in excellent vintage condition without chips or repair – this little bird certainly never flew out of its display cabinet and ...

Lovely bead work, very art nouveau with a touch of art deco! The body of the purse is completely covered up with beads. The bag is mounted on a gorgeous art nouveau silver frame embossed with a splendid array ...
Beautiful 30s art deco perfume set, heavy smoked cut crystal

$120 USDBeautiful 30s art deco perfume set, heavy smoked cut crystal

Collectibles:Vanity Items:Perfume Bottle
Here we have a 4-piece set made of heavy hand-cut crystal: two perfume bottles, a shorter and a longer pin tray. It was made in the 30s, either in France or in Czechoslovakia (we have seen similar pieces made by Moser from Karlsbad in Bohemia or from Cristalleries de Saint-Louis in France). The crystal has a wonderful smoked greenish grey tone. The two perfume bottles are very similar but not exactly the same: one has a flat neck and the other has a concave neck and one of the stoppers is ...
Wonderful vintage German hand-cut crystal perfume set

$260 USD Offers ConsideredWonderful vintage German hand-cut crystal perfume set

Collectibles:Vanity Items:Perfume Bottle
This is quite an impressive 3-piece perfume set! It is made from heavy clear crystal, entirely cut and painted by hand. It is adorned with gilt lines and daisies. On the vaporizer there are still two original tags: one says 'MADE IN GERMANY' and the other has a big N (probably the maker's mark) and a mention in German saying 'Guaranteed genuinely handcrafted'. The set seems to date from the early fifties judging by the style. It consists of three pieces: an atomizer, a perfume bottle and a ...

This lovely girl powder jar is really pretty! She has a charming face and a lot of interesting details like a colorful parrot on her shoulder and a bunch of flowers in her hand. She is made from heavy porcelain and skillfully handpainted. The number 5620 is incised underneath the base. Judging by the quality of this jar, it is undoubtedly German. It is quite large: 5½" (14 cm) high and 4¼" (11 cm) diameter. There is a small factory flaw: 2 tiny bits of stray porcelain on the side of the base. ...

A fabulous little powder jar with a Pierrot violinist seating on the lid and surrounded with wonderful high relief roses. He was made during the art deco period by the old porcelain manufacturer Ernst Bohne Söhne, Rudolstadt (Germany) and bears the crowned N printed in blue under the base (often erroneously identified as 'Naples' or 'Capodimonte'). He is very sweet, made in heavy white porcelain with great details and skillfully hand painted. The small size of this vanity box makes it so ...
Wonderful art nouveau bag with cherubs & flowers

$200 USDWonderful art nouveau bag with cherubs & flowers

Collectibles:Vanity Items:Bags
This is a very nice old art nouveau satin bag with a very impressive silver frame, richly ornate with high relief cherubs flying among flowers and foliage. The body of the purse is made from soft lime-green satin. The frame made of European silver is stamped 800 and engraved with two different logos. We reckon this purse dates from around 1910. The inside is lined with a lovely pale cream satin which is still very clean and intact. It has also a small side pocket. There is a label with a maker's ...

The oval powder jar is in heavy white porcelain and hand painted. It was made in the 30s in Czechoslovakia for the French market: under the base it is marked number 3009 and "Importé de la Tchécoslovaquie". Size: 3 ¾" (9.5 cm) X 3 ¼" (8.3 cm) and 3 ½" high (9 cm).

Cute little Oriental lady powder jar/half doll related

$185 USD Offers ConsideredCute little Oriental lady powder jar/half doll related

Collectibles:Vanity Items:Powder Jar
What a lovely vintage powder jar with a very sweet Geisha lady in her national dress! It looks like from the 20s but we have no certainty about the real age of this jar. There is a sign printed in red underneath the top and the base. On the brown background there is a raised floral decoration (a little bit like on a birthday cake!) A similar raised decoration is to be found on the lady's kimono. The condition is very good, with no chips, cracks nor repairs, except for some wear on the gilt – ...

The inside is fully lined with white taffeta and has a compartment containing a ...

Adorable antique Petit-point or tapestry purse / bag

$75 USDAdorable antique Petit-point or tapestry purse / bag

Collectibles:Vanity Items:Bags
This lovely little bag is very old and must date from the early 1900s. On a black background sprinkled with flowers, there is a wonderful round medallion picturing an antique pavilion on a pond in the middle of a park, just as the scenery you can admire in the Villa Borghese Park in Rome. The bottom of the medallion is underlined with a crown of beautiful roses. The same motif is represented on each side of the purse. What a nice landscape on such a small surface! There is an inset petit-point ...
