Art Deco Mannequin Counter Top Shop Display, C1930

1920 - 1940

Description

Wonderfully stylish and completely original 1930's Art Deco female mannequin. She's made from compressed board, similar to papier mache and then skillfully layer of plaster and hand painted on top. She's very typical of Deco mannequins with stylised white shawl and supported on black plinth. Her hair is the style of the era with subtle make up. She does show signs of her age but in fairness for nearly 90 that's to be expected and is minimal. Ideal size for dressing tables or props for retailers. No makers mark. FREE UK DELIVERY

FAQs

Art Deco mannequin busts from the 1930s typically feature stylised facial features, sculpted hairstyles reflecting period fashions, and elegant, elongated necklines designed to display hats, scarves, or jewellery in retail settings.

During the 1920s and 1930s, counter top mannequins were commonly crafted from plaster, composition, wax, or papier-mache, finished with hand-painted facial detailing and mounted on plaster or wooden bases.

Authentic 1930s mannequins display age-appropriate craquelure or light surface wear, hand-painted eyes and lips reflecting period cosmetics, moulded hairstyles typical of the era, and substantial weight due to plaster construction.

An Art Deco mannequin bust serves as a decorative sculpture on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or dressing table, offering a focal point while providing a practical stand for vintage hats, necklaces, or silk scarves.

Clean painted plaster busts gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or dry soft brush to remove dust, avoiding water or chemical cleaners that can damage vintage paint and cause the underlying material to degrade.
