$95
SHIPPING OFFERED
Offered for sale is this antique/vintage 20th Century Danish Art Deco silver-plated vanity/dressing-table/beauty set, made by the firm of Hans Jensen and most likely dating from the 1920’s to 1930’s. Based in Aarhus, Hans Jensen is known to have been active from 1899 to 1970 and produced a range of high-quality silver and silverplate jewellery. Both pieces are hallmarked with ‘Denmark’ and the Jensen dolphin.
Consisting of a small hand/purse mirror and sleeved comb, the attractive repoussé-applied design of each features a charming rural scene of villagers carousing around a wine barrel. There is lovely attention to the details of country life - with trees, hand-tools, houses, gates/fences and two musicians belting out a tune for a man and woman to dance to. All of this is being patiently observed by a small dog. Cute!
Each piece is in excellent original condition. The mirror has some small marks but not cracks or chipping. All of the teeth on the comb are present. Over time the plating has gently patinated but there are no areas of loss.
The mirror measures 11cm x 6.7cm, and comb 12.7cm x 3.3cm approximately.
Please check the photos as they form part of the item description.
Cash or direct deposit sale only. Can post at buyers expense (must include insurance for damage or loss) or can personally deliver to Macedon Ranges, Melbourne, Geelong or Ballarat CBD’s for a fee. Accurate as possible description at time of listing, however like any secondhand item is sold without guarantee or return so please ask any questions before purchase (as any sale is final).
