Antique French Gold Compact Blue Stones Late 1800's

Antique French Gold Compact Blue Stones Late 1800'sThis is a pretty late 1800's French antique gold tone powder compact with an ornate design that is really lovely. It has blue and white enameling, as well as beautiful blue accent jewels. It is missing the mirror inside the lid, but one can easily be installed, as it has a metal frame that can be removed to replace with a new mirror. It has no missing jewels or enamel, but does have some light age wear to the pale gold tone metal exterior and a gold

with some scuffing to the enamel

This is a lovely 1940's vintage Evans deep orange enameled guilloche ashtray or bowl for candy or nuts

The only issue we saw was some very faint pinpoint dings on the back of the piece

This is the first time we have ever seen one of these cases in working condition

The lid screws on and off easily

and opens to reveal a good condition framed glass mirror in the lid

The box has some very slight age wear

The ashtray is hallmarked on the bottom "Victoria Czechoslovakia RU" along with the number "186"

This is a pretty vintage 1950's Elgin American gold tone cigarette case or business card case that is in excellent condition

It is hallmarked "Deere" in fancy script above the partially nude woman holding a hand held mirror

The handmade silk embroidered powder puff is in excellent unused condition

The heavy weight of this piece is reflected in the higher shipping cost
