Description
Here we have a rare Art Deco powder compact / rouge pot dating circa 1920 and measuring a petite 4cm in diameter and 1.5cm in depth. This little rouge pot is made of bakelite and has a screw top lid with hand painted design featuring an elephant and palm trees. The pot opens correctly with all screw threads intact. Under the lid is a clear and reflective mirror but there is a crack in the mirror. The powder well has traces of loose powder and a little silk backed lambswool puff.
