About the Item

Midcentury Modern Entrance or bedroom furniture. This impressive dressing table with two drawers is both a work of art and a practical piece of dressing room, bedroom or also entrance, portal furniture. We are certain that this is the only one in the world and at the same time it could also be the largest piece known to have been designed by Isabelle Masson Faure. Even without the signature every ‘connaisseur’ would have immediately identified this vanity as a work of this French artist / designer. If not today than this could definitely be a museum piece for the future. The combination of the three mirrors with in the middle colorless, the beautiful peacock lamp sculpture (chosen for obvious reasons here) and the acid stained glass table top with curved drawers and handles is an absolute joy to watch and it also makes this vanity an wonderful talking piece. The peacock with the inserted blue eyes and the beautiful, rich coloured agate stones in the tail feathers is a work of art in itself. Just imagine yourself sitting in front of this highly artistic dressing table with the lights switched on. You will also enjoy it every time you walk passed it. Mind you, our fair price even includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door within 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 65 x 42 x 25 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Moreover, we deliver fast, extremely well packaged and around the world.

Rare France Limoges Porcelain / Bronze Bathroom Set Mirror Pendant Washbasin Etc
By Limoges
Located in Lisse, NL
Highly decorative porcelain bathroom set with stunning roses pattern, by one of Europe's finest. Over the years we have sold very few porcelain Limoges pieces and that is simply because these high value items don't find there way to the open market very often. So to have been given the opportunity to purchase a set as complete and remarkable as the one we are offering you here, more than made our day. Also, because we already know that someone will be thrilled to be able to own, use and enjoy this rare and beautiful set in their (new) home or, for example, in their holiday home. This vintage Limoges set of high quality and detail consists of the following: - A practical size washbasin with gilt bronze mythological dolphin handles. - Large mirror in stylish bronze frame with a mounted (or built-in) 4-light sconce. - A porcelain shelf (for wall mounting) to go under the mirror. - A bronze and porcelain, 4 light pendant light. - A shell design porcelain and bronze soap holder (for wall mounting). - A toilet paper holder with some damage (we therefor listed this set as a five-piece set). For this rare set of six we will create three listings so that we are able to show you enough of the beautiful and stylish details per item. This listing is focussed on the rare and large size brass and bronze mirror with the built-in sconce. As you can see in our images this unique sconce can be used both with the sockets facing upward and downward. Thanks to the perfect brass hooks on the back, safely mounting this unique Limoges mirror...

Antique Hand Carved Phoenix & Dragon w. Large Mirror Side Table Entry Hall Stand
By Gabriel Viardot
Located in Lisse, NL
Rare large and extremely sculptural wall table with marble inlay and beveled mirror. If you are appreciative of rare and sculptural antiques then this large mirror / side table could be exactly what you are looking for. The quality and the patina of the large, fighting phoenix bird and dragon frame is second to none and for it to be in such good condition is truly amazing. It takes a special craftsman and artist to create such a piece, the type that you simply don't find anymore in this day and age. Because of the subject matter and the great quality, the first name that comes to mind would be that of master sculptor Gabriel Viardot. However, Viardot virtually made all of his dragon sculptures in the Chinoiserie style and this piece is clearly more European. In terms of the quality of the carvings, whomever created this unique piece of furniture certainly was no less artistic or skilled as Viardot, because this piece really is among the best you will ever see. The way in which this hand carved wooden phoenix is holding the shield-like beveled mirror in its claws and the way the dragon seems to try to fend off the enormous and fierce phoenix is both dramatic and impressive at the same time and it will never seize to amaze you or anyone visiting. Especially when you see the detailed carvings and the true size of this work of beauty in real life, you will be stunned. By the way, we learned that in imperial China, the dragon and the phoenix were respectively associated with the Emperor and the Empress...
