Original American Art Deco lighted and
mirrored vanity in a very appealing design with rounded tri-fold
mirror top, circa 1930's.
This desirable piece is becoming very hard to find and very
rare, especially one with this pedigree! In removing one of the
vertical mirrors to move the vanity, underneath in writing is
found "Marshall Fields", indicating that the vanity was
obviously intended for Marshall Fields, more than likely as a
display piece in the department store's modern furniture
section.
This spectacular mirrored vanity sports tri-fold mirrors,
allowing the very special lady to angle the two side mirrors
inward to provide additional close up views for hair, makeup,
etc. Two original lamps with frosted glass "shades" are embedded
flush vertically in the large central mirror to provide plenty
of flattering illumination. The original on-off switch is found
at the bottom of the main central mirror. The three mirrors that
together form the central and side mirrors are all bevelled on
the edges.
The vanity features five drawers with their original cylindrical
lucite handles with polished chrome hardware, all in perfect
condition. The vanity has very interesting small metal
decorative covers for the various screws that hold the mirrors
to their wood backing panels. For an original mirrored vanity of
this age, the mirrors are in good original condition although
there are some spotting marks that only add character and show
that the piece is rare vintage original American Art Deco.
Dimensions of the vanity are 36 1/2" wide x 18 1/2" deep x 30
3/4" tall (to horizontal vanity surface) x 56 3/4" tall (to top
of mirrors).
