Art Nouveau Toilet set - Cristallerie de Pantin - Crystal

French-origin dressing table set, Pantin glassware, dating to the Napoleonic III – Art Nouveau period. Manufactured by the Monot - Stumpf company (c. 1880-1890), as evidenced by the seal on its base. It consists of a powder container in crackled glass (verre craquelé), ruby red and amber in color. This container or cup is closed with a bevelled glass lid. An oval bevelled mirror (fixed). Bronze or brass mount with organic motifs (bamboo branches, leaf litter…) and other designs. Both the mirror and the red container are attached to the mount. It is accompanied by a tassel or powder-duster accessory, with a central pleated fabric body, a wooden or ceramic knob, and a layer of pink feathers. The set is in very good condition considering its age; only the mirror shows some stain, and the side tray seems to have had something on it and bears a trace of adhesive or other material.

Estimate:£149.95
