A striking example of Art Deco elegance, this circa 1925 crystal powder jar is an exceptional vanity accessory that beautifully combines bold design with luxurious craftsmanship. The substantial crystal body is expertly cut with a graceful flower petal motif, creating brilliant reflections that sparkle from every angle. Its generous proportions and thick, high-quality crystal give the jar an impressive presence, making it equally suitable as a functional vanity piece or an elegant decorative accent.
The jar is crowned by a solid sterling silver lid, weighing an impressive 118 grams on its own. Smooth and substantial, the lid is finished with a crisp engraved "MFR" monogram, adding both period charm and a touch of personal history. The weight and quality of the sterling silver perfectly complement the brilliance of the crystal, creating a refined balance between luxury and craftsmanship that defined the finest vanity wares of the Art Deco era.
Measuring 5.5 inches wide, 5.5 inches deep, and 2.25 inches high, and weighing a remarkable 1 pound 5 ounces, this is an unusually large powder jar for the period. Originally designed to hold face powder (a powder puff is also included), it can easily be repurposed as an elegant jewelry box, perfect for storing rings, earrings, bracelets, cufflinks, or other cherished keepsakes. Its generous size and sparkling crystal make it a beautiful centerpiece for a vanity, dresser, or dressing table. Good antique condition, no chips or damage, light surface wear. Please review the photos for further condition assessment.
Beautifully preserved and crafted with exceptional attention to detail, this impressive Art Deco powder jar embodies the sophistication and glamour of the 1920s. Whether displayed in a collection of fine crystal and sterling silver or repurposed as a luxurious jewelry box, it is a timeless heirloom-quality piece that will appeal to collectors of Art Deco decorative arts and antique vanity accessories alike.
