Vintage 1950s Enamel Powder Compact with Scottish Terrier

A vintage 1950s powder compact featuring a Scottish Terrier is a delightful and unique accessory that captures the spirit of mid-century design and a love for pets. The compact is made of brass, a common and durable material for these items during that era. The main feature is the depiction of the Scottish Terrier, created using enamel. This process involves applying a coloured glass powder to the brass surface and then firing it, resulting in a smooth, glossy, and vibrant image. The Scottie is rendered in a stylized manner typical of the 1950s. The compact itself is a classic 1950s design, square-shaped with rounded corners. The lid opens to reveal a mirror and a compartment for loose or pressed powder. This type of compact is not just a cosmetic item but a personal statement, a small piece of art that reflects the owner's affection for their beloved Scottish Terrier. The compact measures 9 x 9cm and comes with the original snifer and puff.
