Description
This vintage 1950s Kigu Minuette musical powder compact is offered in exceptionally good, clean condition. The compact measures 9 cm by 7 cm and is made of bright, shiny gold tone metal and has a lovely scalloped shape. The compact lid has lovely etched floral and scrollwork decoration and the centre of the flowers are further enhanced with green and red faceted glass jewels.
The case has firm hinge and secure catch and opens to reveal a perfectly clear and reflective framed, mirror under the lid. The case is marked Minuette and has the Kigu logo. The hinged powder well door opens and closes securely and the powder well beneath is empty of powder but retains it's original, clean sifter. The musical movement is in good working order but I'm afraid I can't "name that tune"!
A lovely example - Offered in very good condition with no flaws found.
