Description

A circle of burnished brown, its quiet depth held within a fine golden lattice.

This vintage Stratton powder compact pairs a warm brown enamel lid with a gold-coloured ring of repeating diamond-and-cross motifs. Light sweeps across the plain centre, giving the restrained decoration a shifting glow. A polished gold-tone rim frames the round case, while the reverse carries fine repeating texture around a Stratton, England mark.

Inside, a circular mirror faces the powder compartment. The seller records this as a used vintage piece, supplied with a puff and sifter. Its appeal lies in the contrast of dark colour and warm metalwork, with the visible signs of age left plainly in the record.

The Particulars

  • Maker: Stratton, marked
  • Origin marking: England on the reverse
  • Type: Round powder compact with mirror
  • Design: Brown enamel lid with gold-coloured geometric ring
  • Reverse: Fine repeating textured pattern
  • Metal finish: Gold-tone, exact composition unconfirmed
  • Usage: Used
  • Condition: Visible age and use wear, including surface scratches and localised finish deterioration

The close-ups show fine scratches and small marks on the brown lid, rubbing and patchy finish wear around the outer rim and hinge, and darker discolouration along portions of the metal edge. Small brownish marks and specks are visible in the pale powder-compartment area, with additional discolouration around its inner rim. Please examine the photographs carefully; this is not offered as a pristine example. No precise manufacture date is claimed.

An autumn-toned vanity relic for a keeper drawn to quiet ornament and the glow of old metal. Carefully nestled in its treasure coffin, a vault relic from Vaen’kai Vault.
