SALE Colonial Couple Dresser Jar c 1930-40's

Collectibles : Vanity Items

 

This dresser jar is an unusual rarity because it has two figures instead of one. The top half of the lady can be removed to hold miscellaneous vanity items or powder. This pair is made of ceramic which is hand painted and glazed (paint is fired). It is not broken, but unfortunately someone has picked off bits of glaze off the man's coat and a little off the bottom of the lady's ruffles on the bottom part of her dress. This could be touched up by a restorer or artistic person. There are a few firing and manufacturing spots, irregularities, but nothing terrible. The piece is marked in red, JAPAN, on the bottom. The first photo shows it's true color, the others are without flash to show details.
