Description

Fantastic original Art Deco porcelain box of a bathing beauty flapper girl. Made of porcelain and finished with lustre glazes, she has an exquisite face and is modelled as if lying on a beach (the lid) surrounded by waves (the base of the box). Measuring 8" wide (20,3 cm), 6-1/4" long (15,8 cm) and 7" high (17,8 cm). Condition is excellent. There is slight wear of the lustre glaze and there is a small firing crack (manufacturing flaw) in the edge of the box which can't be seen when the lid is in place . Apart from that she is perfect: no chips, no cracks or hairlines and no repairs or restoration. She is marked on the underside of the lid with the number 1416 1 and a gold painted "D" and a monogram A.B. on the lid (probably the designer). Much larger than normal boxes of this type, see dimensions.

Date of Manufacture

Art Deco World has dated this Art Deco Porcelain Trinket Box to the 1930s.

FAQs

Art Deco ceramics from the 1930s are characterised by stylised geometric forms, sleek lines, and often feature popular cultural motifs of the era, such as jazz age figures and flappers.

These decorative containers were typically crafted from hard-paste porcelain, moulded, hand-glazed, and sometimes accented with hand-painted enamels and metallic lusters.

Authenticity is generally verified through makers marks, stamps, or impressed numbers on the underside, alongside the characteristic weight, glaze crazing, and hand-painted details typical of early 20th-century European manufacturing.

This type of piece serves as a striking focal point on a dressing table, mantelpiece, or glass-fronted cabinet, adding a touch of period elegance to modern spaces.

Maintenance requires gentle dusting with a soft, dry cloth. Harsh chemical cleaners and immersion in water should be avoided, especially if the piece features delicate hand-painted enamel or gilt decorations.
