You will adore this very beautiful vanity set, I mean, look at it, what's not to love. The unusual portrait is as rare as they come. A stunning lady dressed in the finest of wintry apparel. This Art Nouveau mirror brush set comes from the very late 1800's to the very early 1900's and is sure to put a smile on any woman's face, it is simply charming. The condition is also wonderful with very little to report concerning flaws. The transfer decorated theme is very nicely done with the usual couple of squiggly lines, as is common. The outer porcelain edge is further enhanced with a wonderful gold gild floral border that has a little wear primarily to the brush. I find no damage to the porcelain on either piece, no chips, cracks or significant issues. I'm showing you lots of photos so you can judge this dynamic set for yourself, please excuse the reflections, it truly is marvelous, my photos tell the story and show what you should expect to receive. 
These two photos show the faces of the the mirror and brush and as you can see, there is a scratch or two on the porcelain insert of the brush, along the side of her face. Also, the brush bristles are worn, so this brush, as well as all of these antique hair brushes, will be used for it's exceptional decorative features only. The Art Nouveau embossed brass handles are divine and the outer perimeter frames have a detailed scalloped edge. I have cleaned and polished all of the golden brass metal for you, it's in very fine condition with only one dent on the brush but you have to turn it over to find it near the bristles. Overall, this set is in very, very good antique condition. I am a picky buyer and I am very pleased with it's condition. 
 The hand mirror measures the standard 9½ inches with a 5 inch viewing surface, the brush is proportionate and a little smaller. The original mirror was not useable so I replaced it with a quality clear mirror, it has a nice wide bevel at the outer edge just like the original. I don't think I can say anything more than my photos can express. The new owner of this incredible mirror and brush set should be thrilled. I know if I were a collector, I would not be able to let go of this captivating and rare Art Nouveau vanity hand mirror and brush set.
