An outstanding 1950s powder compact in super condition with the original accessories. We rarely find this model and this is the best example we have added to our collection. The compact is engraved with the landmasses and seas on a lustrous golden satin background.
The interior case is fitted an excellent clear mirror. The inner lid is stamped with the Kigu Ltd. registered trademark. The pristine felt pouch, puff and sifter are included with the presentation box. Image two shows the all round excellent condition of this vanity which is so difficult to photograph as a consequence of its highly reflective exterior case.
This vanity is so well made that is will not loose it lustrous golden appearance. No cleaning is necessary. All catches and hinges work perfectly.
This compact is ideal for use with loose foundation, as a handbag mirror or cherished collectible.
