Antique Alabaster Vide PocheShes seen better days but still has lots of life left! This antique alabaster bowl is missing its original base and was rather shoddily repaired at some point: The bowl separated from the stand and it was glued back on rather askew. Additionally, there is surface dirt & some chips to the leaves around the edges. Its nevertheless still quite attractive and useful: I would make it a vide poche! It would also be lovely as a table centerpiece or bird

cheerful bust of a woman is a lovely example

Refer to photos for size and condition: Very good with some slight water damage on one side of the backing paper

This would be very striking on the head of a doll or on a decorative stand

The mirror is high quality beveled glass and brass and is fitted to hang

Refer to photos for size: 18” tall
