Art Deco Porcelain Powder Box with Woman and Mirror, 1930s

About the Item

An Art Deco porcelain powder box from the 1930s, featuring a seated woman in a ruffled pink dress holding an oval mirror. This two-piece vanity container exemplifies the elegance and glamour of the interwar period, evoking boudoir culture and flapper fashion. The figure is beautifully stylized in true Art Deco fashion — bobbed hair, a low-cut pink dress with sculpted folds, and crossed legs in red heels — all hand-painted in vivid tones. The base forms a lidded box with soft angular lines and a draped fabric motif, painted in orange and pink. A photo could be glued to the mirror area for a personalized touch. This piece likely served as a powder jar or trinket box, placed on a lady’s vanity table for storing makeup, jewelry, or small personal objects. Take into account that the colors on the items may vary depending on the type of lighting and the type of screen from which you see the images.
