Bed Bath and Vanity: Boxes and Jars: Dresser


What's New in the Collector's Showcase of Bed Bath and Vanity: Boxes and Jars: Dresser?
The Most Recent Additions to This Category are First!
Little hinged box with mirrror that may have originally been for a manicure set.  Apprx 3.5" by 3".  Comb is plastic, apprx 5 1/4" 1 3/4".  


Both pieces are covered in silk screened cloth depicting classical art work.  


Probably circal 1950s-60s.


Good condition, though the box has some wear.  Both pieces for one price.  Apprx 5" long, wonderful late Victorian cuticle tool from manicure set, late 1800s, stamped sterling silver.  Tool end is worn, more decorative than something to actually use.  Silver in good condition, sold unpolished.   Apprx 6" by 3 1/4", stamped sterling silver with an "RS" and an arrow through it.  Anyone know this maker's mark?


Brush has soft long bristles.  Dates to the late 1800s, early 1900s.  I assume this is part of a vanity set, probably the brush was used to brush yourself off after you powdered your face?  Not really entirely sure.


Overall in good vintage condition, some wear here and htere but nothing detracting.  A lovely functional and decorative piece.  Apprx 4 3/8" by 5/8".  Circa 1940s-50s.  Black enamel comb case with a little slide lever to retract and extract the comb.  Elegant crest shield goldtone metal embellishment on the front.  Comes in orginal little blue felt pouch with what may be "Sheffield by Bliss"?  Cannot decipher it completely.

Two identical oval brushes, each about 3" by 2 1/2", convex oval shape.  Marked sterling silver on the side with a cross impressed after it and the number "2430".  Bristles in good condition with minimal loss as illustrated.  Good vintage condition.  Surface wear and minimal dings, hard to see unless held at at angle.   Apprx 5" long, lovely stamped sterling silver art nouveau brush, some wear on the side of the brush but overall in fair-good vintage condition.  Lovely embossed floral design.  Gentle wear, usuable, great price!  Apprx 6" long, real bone and stamped sterling silver late Victorian Art nouveau manicure piece (I think).  Good vintage condition, silver unpolished with minimal wear, brush worn down a bit from gentle use.  Apprx 6" long art nouveau stamped sterling silver handle nail brush with real bone.  Stamped FRANCE on the bone.  Circa 1890s-1900.  Lovely raised floral flower design, no dings or dents or damage or repair, excellent vintage condition, sold as found, unpolished.


I am assuming this was part of a larger vanity set or nail set and was used as a nail brush.  If you know of another use for this piece, please let me know...I am wrong on occasion!

Very nice ladies glove box. This one is made of very heavy pressed board, with a celluloid insert. The decoration on the insert is resembles the Old Mill Stream, complete with the man of the house fishing for his supper. Measures 12 inches long, 3 1/2 inches wide, 2 1/2 inches tall. Fully lined in rose cotton fabric. There is a little bit of wear and tear on the box, but overall it is in good shape.  Very nice powder or dresser jar. The lid is shaped like a hand mirror, and when you turn it over there's a mirror. Made out of porcelain, hand painted with gold, and red and blue stripes. Bottom measures 3 1/2 inches across; lid is 5 7/8 inches long. I'm not sure, but I think it might be a Czech piece. It is marked on the bottom with 7310.  Just in from a local estate collection exclusively to the internet comes this rare cut crystal glass powder jar.  Dating back to the late 1800s to early 1900s, this highly collectible vanity accessory measures approximately 4 1/2" in diameter at its widest point. 


This unique piece is made of beautiful transluscent green cut glass.  I am not sure of its origin, but it could very well be European as it came out of a collection of all kinds of very old Italian and French items.  


The lovely heavily cut crystal treasure is made of two pieces which fit togehter without the need for a hinge.  It's got a wonderful brilliant period pattern done on boith pieces, unusual for it to be so intricately cut even on the bottom.  


In excellent condition, the powder jar is intact and ready to use or display on your dresser or vanity!....  All original, the piece is in better than expected condition with only minor wear on its bottom and a few little chigger bites on its rim.  I only mention this for the sake of being thorough; it is in no way distracting or in need of repair or attention.  Surely a welcomed addition to the most advanced of collections, why not add this one to YOURS today?  Direct from my own collection, exclusively to the internet comes this wonderful antique Limoges set.  Each piece measuring approximately 4 1/4" across, this authentic art nouveau treasure dates back quite a few years...it is NOT A REPRODUCTION!.  I'm not sure, but they were probably made to go on a vanity or dresser...perhaps even as part of a larger vanity set.  There's a lovely long oval trinket box or dish and a curvey matching pin tray both made by  this most desireable French company.  Both pieces are a rich creamy porcelain with the inside of the box a swirly almost pyschedelic lustre ware type finish.  It was difficult to catch the purples and other iridescent colors, but they are there and are a nice touch.  The two pieces are just screaming of the Art Nouveau period with a total of four hand painted pastel butterflies on them.  


The back of the little tray is marked with the Limoges mark as well as the artist's signature.  They are as follows"SEYNE"  "LIMOGES FRANCE" "E.Glade" The oval piece is marked as follows"D. & C.", "FRANCE".  This unique period piece is in excellent condition and without damage or repair.  I seldom see such appealing artist signed Limoges...especially authentic Nouveau period items.  Perfect to go with your Alfonse Mucha artwork, this is a vanity set sure to appeal to the pickiest of collectors!

Purchased this year on the streets of Paris comes this lovely cut crystal round vanity piece that can be used for pwder or trinkets.  It measures about 4 7/8" in diameter and is -nearly 2" tall.  I'm unsure of its exact date or origin, but the lovely cut design looks like it is art deco period.  The jar has a starburst or sunburst type design in the top and bottom with splendid cutting on the sides and top that match.  It is in excellent condition with the desired wear on the bottom to show it was a well loved piece that is NOT a reproduction.  A superb example of European or French glass, this is offered for less than my price while in France.  I couldn't find a maker's mark on it, but it is as nice as many signed pieces.
