VINTAGE 40s 24KT GOLD ORMOLU DRESSER SET PERFUME BOTTLES JEWELRY BOX GUILD CREST
This is a RARE, gorgeous Guild Crest 24KT gold plated and glass ormolu dresser set with 2 perfume bottles and a jewelry box. The set has an Art Nouveau design and is very ornate with roses on each piece and in the vine scrollwork. Guild Crest was an American company that made dresser sets and boudoir accessories in the 1940s and 1950s. These items were 24KT gold plated and imported from Germany. This is the only Guild Crest set like this on .
The perfume bottles are each about 8.5” tall and 3.5” in diameter on their bases. They are both marked “ Guild Crest” on their bottoms. The rose comes off and has a glass perfume appliqué. You pour your perfume into the glass vial after you remove the rose. One perfume bottle has its glass appliqué and vial intact. The other perfume bottle is missing its glass appliqué, a piece of the glass vial is broken and some of the pieces that bend to hold in and remove the glass have come off. I will include those broken pieces that have been with it all these decades in case someone is handy and wants to attempt to fix it. See pictures. Not noticeable unless you look close and it is still a beautiful piece in the set - just not useable for putting perfume in it as is.
The hinged and footed jewelry box has a glass top with rose and mustard yellow velvet cushion inside. The jewelry box measures about 5.5” long by 3.75” wide by 3” tall. Just stunning and ornate.
The pieces have patina - a testament to their age. See pictures for details and conditions. Packaged carefully and shipped with tracking.
