I can't say enough about this stunning set, it truly is captivating and beautiful. My photos are showing it very well, the colors are quite lovely and if pink roses are your passion, you will adore owning this set. The 5 pieces include the larger vanity tray, it is marked on the backside with the U.C. Limoges mark, for Union Ceramique, made hard paste porcelains in France. The artist was thoughtful to add their designer signature and date the tray 1917. This dresser tray has a nice curvy shape and is hand decorated with a flowing display of roses, bordered in blue and highlighted in gold gilt for added appeal. It measures 10 in length by 7 in width and the edge turns up a bit.   Another necessary piece is the small pin tray which carries the UNO "Favorite" Bavaria mark, also signed and dated, as shown. This sweet little tray measures 5¾ by 3⅞ and is decorated in much the same way as the larger tray, with lots of gold accents. The hand shaped ring holder is a must have piece but they are very elusive and not found in undamaged condition very often. This hand even has a ring painted on the third finger and measures 3⅝ across the attached base and sits at 4¼ in height. It is an absolutely adorable vanity accessory and dresses up this set with style and distinction, is marked Favorite Bavaria on the underside.
The powder box is another attractive piece, not showing so nicely in the close-up, it is also signed, dated and marked Favorite Bavaria. It measures 4 inches at the widest and sits 2¾ in height. The hatpin holder (no hole in the bottom) is a great piece, it shows well in the first and last photos, I couldn't seem to get a decent close-up of it, measures 2¾ across the attached base, stands 4½ in height and is unmarked but the shape and style is more Bavarian than Limoges. All of the pieces are meticulously hand painted and match in every way. There are no damages to this set, no cracks, chips, hairlines, etc. The paint is bright and the set shows little if any gold loss at all. This antique vanity dresser set will bring a smile to your face each day you use it, I know you will love it as I do.
