Regular price $34.99 Sale

Vintage 1930's Yardley New York brass enameled figural ladies makeup compact.

This unique intricate piece is made by Yardley New York and features a black enameled floral design with a raised figural image of a woman and children with red enamel at their feet. The outer rim of the compact features red enamel as well. At the base of the compact is a removable lip stick holder. The main compartment opens to reveal a mirror and a well for a foundation applicator. If the small lever on the bottom right is pressed, it opens to a foundation well. The mirror on top flips up to reveal a blush well.

The inside of the foundation section is marked "Patent Pending" on the bottom left and signed Yardley in the top right. The back is also signed Yardley with a black and red enameled oval around it.

The compact measures 2" x 2.5" when closed. The left side of the lid is very slightly loose, but doesn't affect the function of the piece.
