Antique 3-Piece Gold-Tone Repoussé Vanity Set | Mirror, Brush & Powder Jar

Detailed Description

Bring classic, old-world elegance to a dressing table with this beautiful antique 3-piece vanity set. The set includes a heavy hand mirror, a matching hairbrush (stamped "NYLON - U.S.A."), and a heavy, clear pressed-glass powder or trinket jar with a matching metal lid.

The metal components feature a warm, aged gold-tone finish (likely brass or gold-plated base metal) decorated with stunning repoussé (raised) floral motifs. The backs of the mirror and brush display elegant poppy or anemone flowers, while the lid of the powder jar features intricate, swirling Victorian-style floral scrollwork. It is a highly displayable set perfect for staging a vintage vanity tray.

Condition

Grade: Fair to Good Antique Condition

Details: This set shows authentic, heavy age and use. The gold-tone metal exhibits significant tarnishing, surface wear, and loss of plating, particularly on the handles and the lid of the jar, exposing the silver-toned base metal beneath. The mirror glass shows heavy "desilvering" (cloudiness and spotting) typical of antique mirrors. The nylon brush bristles are intact but show use. The glass powder jar is solid with no chips or cracks.

Measurements (Estimated)

Mirror Length: Approx. 12.0 to 13.0 inches

Brush Length: Approx. 10.0 to 11.0 inches

Jar Diameter: Approx. 4.0 inches
