Three Decorative Dress Form Jewelry Stands
Description
A group of three decorative torso dress forms, likely intended for jewelry display, exhibiting a decorative, possibly vintage or reproduction aesthetic. The leftmost form is covered in a deep burgundy fabric, possibly velvet or a similar textured material, intricately embroidered with floral patterns and accented with small beads. It features a tiered, ruffled skirt made of a sheer, matching fabric, is topped with a clear, spherical finial, and supported by an ornate, gold-toned metal pedestal base. The central mannequin is clad in a champagne or gold satin-like fabric, embellished on the bust with light-colored feathers and faux floral appliques featuring central beads. A trim of matching faux fur or feathers adorns the waist, from which multiple clear, crystal-like drops are suspended. It stands on a darker, ornate metal base with a distressed finish. The rightmost object is a more utilitarian dress form, covered in a natural-toned coarse linen or burlap fabric with visible stitching, and finished with a simple, light brown, possibly cork or wood, neck cap. No discernible text or manufacturer’s markings are visible on any of the items.
