1930's Art Deco Polychrome Polygonal Vanity/Tobacco Set
Polychrome, polygonal and poly-purpose! Here's a very elegant and practical method to organize and beautify your vanity or dresser-top. Then again, it is a striking and dignified tobacco set - with a canister for loose tobacco, a medium cup for cigarettes, a small cup for wooden matches and an ashtray. This 6 piece French polychrome ceramic vanity set is hand-painted with an inner turquoise glaze and an outer stacked brown and turquoise geometric painting on a white background with a crackle hand-painted painted detail. The entire set comprises a hexagonal tray, one small hexagonal cup, one medium sized hexagonal cup, one small hexagonal dish and one larger octagonal container with a matching lid. It is stamped Payenceries, Sarreguemines and embossed "FRANCE".
