Within the elegant confines of a vintage handbag, this golden compact, its coordinated lipstick and pillbox from the Emrich brand, tell a story of refinement and femininity.
The brushed gold metal compact is delicately adorned with black and brown cabochons mounted in relief, like a hand-sculpted jewel. The interior features a beveled mirror and a loose powder receptacle closed by a lid with a puff and a sifter.
The lipstick tube is matching and features a small mirror. A charming miniature, it evokes the beauty rituals of yesteryear – a touch of perfume, a glance in the mirror, and the world stops for a moment.
The delicate little pillbox completes this set.
Whether as bag accessories or display objects, they embody the grace of elegant women from the 1940s-50s, between Hollywood glamour and Parisian chic.
To give or to collect, for souls sensitive to the sparkles of yesteryear.
