Historic Beauty Objects

The Historic Beauty Objects Archive gathers objects tied to the history of beauty and personal ornament from the Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, drawn from the Collection API (CC0) and refreshed monthly. Every record links its museum object page and carries garment family, era, season and significance labels; objects are described as cataloged, never appraised or priced.
