What items belong in a dressing table set?

A set typically includes accessories like scent bottles, vanity jars, hand mirrors and matching trays. Some collections also incorporate sewing tools or manicure implements. Larger entries on this page expand to include matching dressing tables, stools, washstands and bedroom wardrobes.

How do I care for silver and glass?

Sterling silver mounts require gentle cleaning with a soft cloth to prevent tarnish buildup. Avoid harsh chemical dips that strip antique patination. Glass bottles should be washed by hand in warm soapy water, taking care to protect any painted decoration like Mary Gregory white enamel.

Are these sets usually complete?

Many sets survive with most of their original components intact, often housed within fitted leather or velvet-lined cases. Individual pieces were also sold separately or added over time. Matching scent bottles within a casket are sometimes replacements, so check for consistent glass colour and identical stoppers.

How do I date a Victorian set?

Dating relies on material combinations, hallmarks on silver mounts and stylistic indicators such as Aesthetic Movement geometry or Rococo Revival curves. Walnut and mahogany pieces from the mid to late nineteenth century display distinct construction methods. Makers' marks on metalwork and hallmarks with date letters provide precise years for silver components.
