Description
We are thrilled to offer this awesome brass vintage minaudiere. This fabulous purse compact has 2 compartments; one for your powder and one for cigarettes (you can use for change, or whatever you like). There is an empty lipstick holder that clips securely to the side and a dainty little carrying chain attached to the top.

The front is beautifully impressed with a floral design and there is a silhouette of an elegant lady on the reverse (she is smoking). This compact measures 3 1/2" x 2 3/8".

My research shows that the powder puffs in identical compacts are marked Zell 5th Avenue (the puff is missing from this one). Other than some slight foxing to the edge of the mirror this compact is in excellent condition. All you need is a powder and lipstick refill in your favourite colors and your all set. Great addition to your collection or perfect for a night out on the town.
