Victorian Era Vanity Set
« on: January 16, 2015, 04:49:04 PM »
Picked up this vanity set Wednesday at a home sale. I do not know if its English, French or Bohemian for even a country of attribution, but believe it to be from Victorian era. Ormolu holder, 16" height, bowl is 8 1/2" diameter & 3" height, vases are 9" height with 3" diameter at top. Span between vases is 15" so its a good sized set. Spent some time cleaning it up & its undamaged with mint enamel which may be somewhat of a miracle. Simply looking for input of possibilities if I have not covered them all so all comments appreciated. Ken

Hi Ken

Looks very pretty, but I'm really sorry, your grouped photos are always just too small to see any detail on them at all. 
Can you try just posting one pic each for the 600 x 400 and that way the actual piece can be seen rather than the grouping of pics.  It's not possible to determine any information from it otherwise, and you always post such lovely pieces.

Thanks
m
