-Origin: Spain.
-Period/Style: Neo-Baroque with strong Rococo influences (c. 1900-1950).
-Manufacture: The handheld mirror bears the hallmark of the prestigious Spanish silversmithing firm Cortasa. Due to the perfect harmony of its design, ornamentation, and patina, the rest of the set is attributed to the same manufacturer and period.
-Materials:
*Structures, lids, spines, and outer body of the box in Alpaca (German silver) and high-quality silver-plated metal, characterized by their lasting silvery luster and excellent resistance.
*Bodies of the bottles and jar in solid cut crystal, with a translucent finish that refracts light exceptionally well.
*Interior of the box fully lined in garnet/burgundy velvet.
*Toothed comb structure in rigid, dark-colored synthetic material typical of the period.
-Technique: Chiseled and embossed metalwork with three-dimensional motifs; textured metal background of the box with fine perforation or carving that highlights the reliefs. Crystal cut with vertical facets (fluting) and fluted bases. The perfume bottles feature a frosted neck for an airtight seal.
-Ornamentation: The jewelry box displays a profuse, neo-Baroque ornamental design, composed of scrolls, stylized acanthus volutes, and symmetrical medallions enclosing five-petaled flowers, finished around the perimeter with a pearled cord. The handpieces and the bottle lids follow a more sinuous line (Louis XV style), with subtle moldings and carved borders framing the mirror-polished surfaces.
-Marks:
*Hand mirror: Engraved with "CORTASA" and "ALPACA".
*Brush and comb: Engraved with "ALPACA" on their metal mounts.
(Note: The glass containers and the box do not have visible marks, which is common in blown glass accessories or lined bases of this type of set).
-Measurements:
*Metal Jewelry Box: 24 cm (length) x 17.8 cm (width) x 6.7 cm (height).
*Hand Mirror: 25 cm (length) x 11 cm (maximum width).
*Brush: 17.5 cm (length) x 5.7 cm (width) x 3.5 cm (bristle height).
*Comb: 19 cm (length) x 4.5 cm (width).
*Perfume Bottles (2 units): 15.5 cm (height) x 9 cm (maximum diameter) | Base: 6 cm and 5.5 cm diameter at the alpaca stopper.
*Powder/Cream Jar (1 unit): 9.5 cm (height) x 11 cm (maximum diameter at the base) | Lid: 10 cm diameter | Base: 8 cm.
-Condition: The overall condition of the set is good, with signs of wear consistent with the photos and its age. The glass bottles are free of cracks; a significant added value is that both perfume bottles retain their original frosted glass inner stoppers, a functional and delicate element that is often lost over time.
-Versatility and Use: Beyond its original function as a dressing table set, this set offers multiple decorative possibilities in the contemporary home:
*The striking embossed metal box is perfect as a statement jewelry box in the bedroom or a sophisticated display case in the living room.
*The glass bottles are ideal for holding contemporary fragrances, essential oils, or for use as subtle single-stemmed vases in bathrooms or modern dressing tables.
*The mirror, comb, and brush set adds a touch of romance and cinematic nostalgia when displayed on dressers, entryway consoles, or in cabinets.
