Description
A rare and beautiful vintage novelty powder compact which depicts the globe, countries, capital cities, and seas as they were known in this era. The oceans are shown in silver tone. This silver plating is in super condition, as are the gold plated landmasses. This powder compact is so much more beautiful than the images show. As this rare vanity is spherical, reflections are showing on the surface. In person this vanity does not have any dark reflections. The interior case is fitted with a mirror which gives a good and accurate reflection. The inner lid is embellished with beautiful gilded guilloche engraving. The bottom of the powder well is signed: Pygmalion MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN The hinges and catches work perfectly. No traces of face powder. The original pouch and sifter are included. Measures 5.5 cm diameter and stands 5.5 cm high. Weighs 56.6 grams. So adorable! Excellent condition.
