This is a vintage powder compact for loose face powder.
It dates to the late 1950s or early 1960s. It does not appear to have a maker's mark. It is in a like-new condition - so no hygiene issues with it.
The main body is gold-tone - and the top of the lid is covered with small interlocked oblong sections of mother of pearl. There are no damages to the lid surface - with is nice and shiny with no scratches.
The base is a simple dull gold-tone metal. Inside is a mirror in the lid - and free from blemishes. The base would hold loose powder. It retains its original shifter. It was never design with a metal cover to the internal compartment.
It measures 2 inches (5 cm) square. This is certainly a wee cutie - perfect wee vanity accessory for popping in a little evening purse for a glamourous evening event.
I have taken lots of images for your inspection.
Good price for this more unusual vintage souvenir powder compact. The price to post would be £4.95 Recorded Delivery with the Royal Mail. This will be applied at checkout.
