Description
A wonderful example of Art Deco design. This is a silver mounted vanity or trinket pot. The hallmarked silver lid is set with a bi-coloured enamel panel to the centre. The stunning guilloche work is of a white Greek Key border surrounding a vivid blue centre with geometric design.
The gorgeous champagne coloured glass body is cut with strawberry diamonds and alternating panels of angled slice cuts. The pull-off lid is fully gilded to the interior, an indication of an item of quality. A lovely piece for the dressing table, both practical and decorative
