    Description

    Hello and Welcome,
    This listing is for an antique Victorian style half doll covered powder/dresser jar.
    Unmarked on bottom. I am most certain this piece was manufactured in Germany.
    My Grandmother along with her mother collected half doll and half doll related items and nearly all of her collection originated in Germany.
    Circa early 1900's
    This piece was done by a skilled artisan who took pride in their work.
    She wears a yellow and pink Victorian style dress. Her grey hair is done in the Marie Antoinette style and she wears feathers in her hair.
    Her facial features are very well done, she has blue eyes.
    She holds her purse in her left hand.
    This piece comes from my private collection and has been lovingly cared for and kept in a curio cabinet for many, many years.
    This collectible and rare jar measures 5 and a half inches tall including the lid.
    It measures 3 and a half inches wide at widest point.
    This fashionable Victorian lady can be used to keep your favorite items in. Looks wonderful when displayed on your nightstand, vanity or dresser.
    I keep one on my bathroom vanity where I place my rings in when I am not wearing them. A friend of mine uses one on her desk to keep paper clips in.
    Just because these were once used as powder jars does not mean they can not be incorporated into our daily lives for other uses. Simply place a piece of felt on the bottom if you wish to protect the interior. These powder jars look great when displayed in along with your half dolls or other fine china.
    What a great gift this would make for that half doll collector in your life or for those who just have an appreciation for unique and beautiful collectible pieces from the past.
