{"product_id":"vintage-ebony-dressing-table-pot-screw-lid-circa-1920","title":"Antique English Ebony Trinket Box","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eA lathe-turned ebony dressing table pot, solid Gaboon ebony throughout, with a screw-on lid and baluster body on a stepped base. The form is compact and purposeful: these pots held powder, hairpins, or cotton wool on an Edwardian or inter-war dressing table, and the tight screw closure kept the contents secure. Gaboon ebony, sourced from West Africa, was the material of choice for English toilet ware of this period because of its density, its capacity for a high natural polish, and its deep, even black color. The base is stamped EBONY, consistent with English dressing table accessories of the 1900 to 1935 window. The piece is small, solid, and has the satisfying weight of genuine hardwood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Type | Dressing table pot\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Material | Solid Gaboon ebony\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Closure | Screw-on lid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Stamp | EBONY stamped to base\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Origin | England\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Age | Circa 1910 to 1930, Edwardian to inter-war period\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[d]Size | 3 in H x 3 in D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e[condition]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eGood condition overall. The exterior retains strong polish with good depth of color. The screw thread is intact and the lid seats firmly. The top of the lid shows fine surface scratches across the flat face, visible in raking light but not deep. The exterior body is clean with no chips, cracks, or losses. The interior is unfinished ebony, consistent with type, with minor dusty residue but no damage to the wood. The base shows light surface scratching and some white residue around the stamp area, consistent with age and use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51473173578006,"sku":"AMD-03362","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/Belgium_FranceContainerInventory-11676.jpg?v=1788998792","url":"https:\/\/austynmariedesign.com\/products\/vintage-ebony-dressing-table-pot-screw-lid-circa-1920","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
