LOT OF 2: MOTHER-OF-PEARL EGG-SHAPED PERFUME CASES

C. 1800s. (A) A fantastic French Palais Royal perfume caddy featuring two large mother-of-pearl shells with a mechanical bird finial; when pressed down, it opens to reveal two clear glass miniature perfume bottles. The perfumes have a casket-like shape. The perfumes sit on a brass stand, featuring two ornate enamel framing pieces at the bottom of the stand. The vanity set sits on a cream alabaster stand that has some chipping around the bottom, but overall, these are two lovely perfumes for any Victorian perfume collector.(B) A spectacular signed Dresden German porcelain Rococo Revival perfume vanity set featuring a porcelain blue body with an ornate, detailed hand-painted courting scene on the bottle, with a gold-toned metal hinged lid. The porcelain is in very good condition. The brass stand is on four ornate feet with two mother-of-pearl shells on either side of the perfume, with an ornate gold "frame" displaying the painting. The stand also features a decorative handle for easy travel.

Condition: (Very Good).
