Dresser Top / Vanity Set

European Porcelain

13 pieces

Up for auction is an antique porcelain dresser top / vanity set, with an overall blue and white floral decoration and gold gilt highlights.  There are a total of 13 pieces in the set, which include: a large rectangular tray;  2 perfume bottles with their original stoppers;  2 round trinket boxes with their original covers; a round powder jar with its original cover; a ring tree;  and a small rectangular tray or dish for smaller items.  The larger tray measures approximately 7.375 by 10 inches in size, while the smaller tray measures approximately 3 by 5.875 inches in size.  Each perfume bottle stands approximately 5.5 inches tall (when measured to the top of their stopper), while the diameter of their base measures approximately 2.25 inches across.  There is a small grooved line across the top of one of the stoppers, which would have been placed there so that one can distinguish the contents from one bottle as compared to the other.  The powder jar stands approximately 4 inches in height (when measured to the top of the finial on its cover), while the jar itself measures approximately 3.5 inches across at its widest point.  Each trinket box stands approximately 1.75 inches tall (when measured to the top of their domed cover), while the diameter of the base measures approximately 2.875 inches across.  The ring tree stands approximately 3.75 inches tall.  There are no markings on any of the pieces, with the exception of what appears to be an "h" in the glaze on the bottom of the larger tray, and a "DW" carved into the unglazed base of the smaller tray.  While I cannot be certain, I believe these pieces to be early European, dating to the mid to late 1800's. 

All of the porcelain pieces are in great vintage condition, with minimal soiling are wear, and no cracks, chips, scratches, stains, discoloration, repairs, nor any other damage that I can detect, other then some minor loss of the gold gilt.
