Arc de Triomphe, Paris Image on Lid, Celluloid Back and Clean Interior","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a lovely vintage late 1940s \/ early 1950s powder compact. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt features a rarer image of the Sacre Coeur on top of the Montmatre Hill in Paris. Images of the Sacre Coeur on vintage 50s compacts are much harder to find - and you might more readily find one featuring the Eiffel Tower at this time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact is not marked with a maker's name - and is obviously French in origin  - as a little ribbon lozenge at the bottom is Souvenir de Paris. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact is in good condition commensurate with age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lid has an image printed onto thick paper or card and then covered in a thick clear plastic or lucite cover. The edges are a dull brass colour, and the back is a marblised plastic or lucite in a pale silvery green. It is a better quality one as shown with the addition of the marblised base. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside there is a mirror in the lid - this is clean with no spotting or scratches etc. The base section where the powder goes is nice and clean - and looks as if it has never been used. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has its original powder sifter and I have popped in a little modern (new) foam sponge. Diameter is 7 cm or 2 3\/4 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA nice compact for the lover of all things French - or the specialist vintage compact collector. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt will be sent with you with Royal Mail Tracked Postage. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55506183422331,"sku":"Red Cabinet Drawer 1","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/1940s-1950s-powder-compact-arc-de-triomphe-paris-image-on-lid-celluloid-back-and-clean-interior-vintage-689.webp?v=1790132826","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/vintage-1940s-1950s-powder-compact-arc-de-triomphe-paris","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
