Antique Bavarian Powder Trinket Box Hand Painted Pink Roses Victorian Vintage Vanity Shabby Cottage Boudoir

Antique bavarian powder trinket box hand painted pink roses victorian vintage vanity shabby cottage boudoir. Here is a lovely item that can be repurposed to hold a variety of things.

This antique porcelain box was originally a utilitarian item meant to hold face powder and a fluffy puff and was a feminine accent of the dressing table. Lift the lid and keep your loose change, jewelry or stash inside, turn the rounded base over and you will find that it has been molded with three feet so that it sits raised up. This lovely little box is a round shape and the lid is a nice concaved dome. Both the base and lid are beautifully hand painted with pink roses and lush foliage against a white background shaded in pastel tones of yellow and blue. The edges are lavishly gilded for an elegant touch.

Dating to the late 1890s victorian era to the early 1900s edwardian period, it is just one part of a four piece matching dresser set that i have enjoyed for many years, all pieces painted by the same unknown but talented artist. Elegantly displayed in my antique french vitrine cabinet, it always managed to get compliments from anyone who peered through the wavy glass. It is in very good condition for something over 120 years old. No chips or cracks, but there is wear to the gold banding around the edges.

The base is marked bavaria. " the box has a 4.5" diameter and stands 3.5 tall.

This is a sweet little piece is just the perfect size to hold rings or small trinkets. Overall, a pretty antique porcelain trinket or vanity box for your dressing table. Please see my other listings for the matching pieces for sale. Let my past treasures be your new ones to cherish for years to come. This item is made of porcelain.
