Condition: Original Vintage Condition Materials: Tiger Oak, Original Mirror, Brass Pulls Style: French Art Nouveau This early 1900s Art Nouveau–style gentleman’s shaving stand captures the charm of old-world daily rituals, when grooming was a slow, intentional moment built into the rhythm of the morning. Crafted in the United States from richly figured tiger oak, it features its original tilting mirror mounted on a cast-metal arm, allowing a man to angle the glass perfectly in natural light before indoor bathrooms were common. The upper drawers and lower shelves once held razors, brushes, soaps, and water bowls, reflecting a time when personal care stations were elegant pieces of furniture rather than fixtures attached to walls. Brass pulls and soft Art Nouveau curves give the stand a refined presence, blending beauty with the practical craftsmanship that defined early 20th-century life. It remains in original vintage condition, carrying with it the warm patina and nostalgic character of a bygone era. Fun Historical Fact: Before the rise of modern plumbing, grooming stands like this acted as a personal “bathroom corner,” offering a dedicated space for shaving, washing, and preparing for the day. The adjustable mirror was a luxury innovation, allowing men to catch the best light from nearby windows for a safer and closer shave. Tiger oak furniture...

Antique Moroccan Fez Blue & White Ceramic Footed Vase with Filigree Metal Overlay, Early 20th Century. Dimensions: 10 in. x 14 inc. H. A striking antique Moroccan ceramic footed vase handcrafted in the historic city of Fez (Fès), renowned for producing some of Morocco's finest pottery for centuries. Dating to the early 20th century, this impressive vessel beautifully combines the celebrated ceramic traditions of Fez with the intricate artistry of Moroccan metalwork. Wheel-thrown from high-quality earthenware, the vase is decorated in the iconic "Bleu de Fès" palette, featuring richly painted cobalt blue floral and geometric motifs set against a luminous crackled white glaze. This distinctive blue-and-white decoration has long been associated with the master potters of Fez and reflects centuries of Andalusian, Moorish, and Islamic artistic influence. The ceramic body is enhanced by an elaborate handcrafted filigree metal overlay, composed of finely worked white metal and brass elements that wrap gracefully around the neck, body, handles, and pedestal foot. Decorative embossed bands, intricate openwork, and circular ring handles create a sophisticated interplay between ceramic and metal, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship of Moroccan artisans. Its elegant baluster form, raised pedestal base, and twin ring handles evoke the refined decorative objects once found in traditional Moroccan riads and palaces. Originally created as an ornamental vase for displaying flowers or simply admired as a work of art, today it remains a stunning statement piece for both traditional and contemporary interiors. Rich in history and craftsmanship, this vase complements Moorish, Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial, Islamic, Hollywood Regency, Global, and Bohemian interiors, making it equally desirable for collectors and interior designers. Origin: Fez (Fès), Morocco Date: Early 20th Century Materials: Hand-thrown ceramic, white metal and brass filigree overlay Style: Moorish / Islamic / Moroccan Condition: Very good antique condition with age-appropriate wear consistent with use. Beautiful craquelure to the glaze and a rich patina to the metalwork, enhancing its authenticity and character. A superb example of traditional Moroccan craftsmanship, this antique Fez vase...
