The lid of this Elizabeth Arden compact is a field of gold: an all-over embossed design of densely packed daisies and floral motifs, each one pressed into the warm gold-tone metal with the kind of detail that rewards close attention. Scattered across the surface at irregular intervals, five deep garnet-red cabochon stones sit flush in their settings like full stops in a sentence you want to read slowly. The overall effect is somewhere between a medieval reliquary and a very well-dressed vanity table, which is to say: exactly where it belongs in the Vault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStamped MADE IN SWITZERLAND on the hinge, which is a provenance worth noting. Swiss manufacture in the mid-century compact world meant precision engineering and materials held to a higher standard, and this piece carries that quality in its weight, its hinge action, and the clean, uncluttered interior: a full mirror on one side, a powder well on the other, both in excellent condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsed, but worn with care.
