About the Item
An Art Deco porcelain powder box featuring a reclining bathing beauty atop a mussel shell, crafted by Goebel in Bavaria, 1920.
This rare and collectible piece perfectly embodies the elegance and playful charm of the 1920s.
Molded in glazed porcelain with nacre-inspired colors, the mussel shell opens to reveal a compartment once used to store rice powder or jewelry.
Resting on its lid is a sleek pin-up style bather—dressed in a vivid yellow and black swimsuit, matching headscarf and dainty black shoes—posing in relaxed leisure.
Marked “10392” and attributed to W. Goebel of Rödental, Bavaria, this piece showcases the refined craftsmanship and stylized flair that made Goebel a standout in early 20th-century decorative ceramics.
Ideal for collectors of Art Deco vanity items, bathing beauties, or figural powder boxes, this is both a conversation piece and a snapshot of interwar glamour.
