Andreas Collection Item Detail



German Silver compact


A central cartouche has the initials MET.   I love things with initials, the initials are part of the history of an item and a real link between the previous owner and me.  The cover design of 4 enamelled corners with a pink rose in each. This is german silver and it doesn't ever appear to have been used.   Inside there are 2 circular spaces, one small for rouge and another slightly larger for powder.  There are also two spaces for tiny and I mean tiny lipsticks.  The cover for one lipstick is still in place as are the two puffs.  The round glass mirror is in good condition.  c. 1920s  No makers mark.
