This is just super-fantastic! When I purchased it the tag said "very old," however I can't be sure of the age. I can't find one exactly like it anywhere, but the few that I found that were similar seem to be quite sought-after and valuable. It looks to me to be art deco/nouveau-esque. Set consists of a brush (missing a few bristles but otherwise in great condition) and a nail buffer with green enamel and chrome details. Very cool set. Anyone know anymore about this item's age/classification? Any input would be greatly appreciated since I can't find one like it anywhere online. Thanks in advance!
These enameled vanity sets were very popular in the 1920s-early 1930s. Yours is definitely Art Deco and probably mid-late '20s. Would have likely included a mirror and comb, maybe more. Very nice!
Chadakoin-thank you for your insight & your comment.
AR8Jason-I believe it's chrome, but not 100% certain. I'm fairly sure it's not sterling. Thanks for looking!
