Hand painted porcelain expresses the emotional connection between the artist and subject. This fantastic Art Nouveau dresser/vanity set shows the artist's passion and understanding of an elegant, yet simplistic floral arrangement and presentation. Executed in a small home-studio environment, circa 1910, unfortunately not signed by the artist, it will difficult to find a more complete set. The pieces are painted on various porcelain white-ware blanks, circa early 1900's.

All decoration is delicately outlined in black.
