History: This display piece exemplifies the fusion of functional elegance and theatrical glamour typical of Art Deco vanity and dresser objects. The frosted glass rim gives a luxurious satin-like finish while the raised medallions evoke the mechanised floral motifs popular in early 20th-century decorative arts. These designs were frequently showcased in Czech or French Art Glass traditions, designed to stand proudly on a dressing table, sideboard, or parlour display cabinet.
 
 
The central nude figure transforms the object from a simple plate into a sculptural focal point. Such forms were part of the broader Art Deco fascination with classical ideals, modern femininity, and movement, often seen in companion pieces like figural powder boxes and perfume stands.
 
Flaws: Stand and Dish are in separate pieces, will need repairing
