Description :

Elegant antique sterling silver vanity set, comprising a hand mirror and matching hairbrush, each beautifully adorned with repoussé floral garland and bow motifs in the Victorian Rococo Revival style. Both pieces feature a central monogram cartouche finely engraved with the letter “M” in ornate script. The surfaces display a lovely, even patina consistent with age, enhancing the intricate floral and ribbon designs.

Markings:
Each piece is stamped “STERLING 532”, indicating genuine sterling silver (.925 purity). The design includes raised floral clusters near the handle junctions, typical of early 20th-century American silver vanity sets produced by makers such as Gorham, Webster, or International Silver Co.

Dimensions:

  • Mirror: 9.5 inches long

  • Brush: 9.5 inches long

Style & Era:
Circa 1900–1920, American, Art Nouveau to early Art Deco transitional period, featuring hand-chased floral detailing and refined curves.


Collecting Note:
Sterling vanity sets from this era are prized for their craftsmanship and romantic design motifs. Monogrammed examples like this pair are particularly collectible, reflecting the personal elegance of early 20th-century dressing tables.
