Antique German Porcelain Half-Doll Powder Box – Rococo Lady in Yellow Gown inspired by Marie Antoinette- Monte Vista Estate Drop

Antique German Porcelain Half-Doll Powder Box – Rococo Lady in Yellow Gown inspired by Marie Antoinette

This charming antique German porcelain powder box captures the elegance and whimsy of 18th-century-inspired fashion. Each box is fashioned as a finely detailed lady inspired by Marie Antoinette in a full-skirted gown, with delicately painted facial features, powdered coiffures, and bodices accented in vivid color.

The top lifts away to reveal a small compartment—traditionally used for face powder, trinkets, or keepsakes—making it as functional as they are decorative.

The soft yellow pastel palette, graceful pose, and fine detailing reflect the quality associated with German porcelain makers of the early 20th century.

Details:

• Origin: Germany
• Period: Early 20th century (circa 1910–1930)

This dainty powder box makes a delightful addition to a vanity, a perfect gift for the porcelain collector, or a romantic accent in any grandmillennial home.

All of the pieces in this ESTATE DROP are from the same Monte Vista estate. 

Monte Vista in San Antonio is one of the city’s most prestigious historic districts, famed for its early 20th-century mansions, tree-lined streets, and grand architectural styles. Long regarded as a hub of old-money elegance and cultural heritage, it remains one of San Antonio’s most sought-after and storied neighborhoods.

Pieces like this are why I love Sourcing the South and the great state of Texas for heirloom estate decor…shopping estate sales, online auctions, charity thrift stores, and antique malls to carefully curate a collection of fantastic vintage and antique finds that have and will stand the test of time.
