This is a lovely Nippon vanity covered powder jar or trinket box with its original thick, heavy gold gilt enamel, moriage raised gold balls going around the perimeter and beautifully hand painted pink floral design completely done by one artist's “hand”; not passed down the line where there are different hands doing pink flower, green flower, leaves, perimeter highlights etc.... It also has beautiful long curved legs. Impeccable early hand crafting. Fine quality unglazed bisque. Nice, soft, pretty colors with strong accents. Strong black enameled rectangular early 1920s Art Deco geometric borders.

This is a lovely large antique Art Nouveau Jungendstil period sash pin or chatelaine pin conversion with bunches of grapes, a whiplash perimeter for which Jungendstil jewelry is well known, and what appears to be oak leaves whipped around the center. Likely made of hardened steel gunmetal which was readily used during this period in order to accommodate the detailing required for the intricate design work of this period. It is not sterling and there are no remnants of silver plating on the front. The back also looks like hardened steel. It came from an estate from many decades ago and has not been touched. The back still has its original antique Victorian Art Nouveau thick C Clasp intact. There are no cracks or splits or tears or breaks. The gunmetal itself has gray and silver color with deep undertones. Overall condition is excellent. No damage or repair. All original. Size measures 2 3/4" wide east to west across the top by 2 1/2" north to south on each side going down the diagonal.
