Abstract Art Deco Melba 1920’s Antique Compact Enamel Scenic order Original Puff Flapper Small Detailed Signed Collector Mirror Case

Price reduced 50%!!!
This is a very rare compact collectible. Small with very nice, original mirror and lavender puff. The compact has a scenic enameled front with the letter “M” on front center. This stands for the brand, Melba, which is engraved on back. There are Repousse areas and the enamel fills in the dips; kind of in the style of cloisonné; for example; enlarge the outside trim and you can see lavender enamel!

There is a small area inside for a long lost lipstick tube; empty. This needs to be wiped out and can easily be cleaned.
This is a very charming little compact and opens with a push opener. Very functional; closes and opens nicely. The chain is very old and is missing one of the jump rings, still a really interesting antique chain with unusual links!

Compact measures approximately 2” long x1 3/4” across.

Museum piece; EXTREMELY RARE!
