One of the most beautiful examples of a romantic compact mirror, made in a heart shape from vintage brass - this item is from the 1950s. As an avid compact collector, I very nearly kept this one for myself! A very unusual and unique shape, with the original protective fabric sleeve and a mirror that is in near-perfect condition.
Made by KIGU, this compact also has a cartouche where initials or name could be personalised. Inside the inner lid is marked above the mirror with 'Cherie Patented' and underneath the mirror is marked 'Made in England'. The powder well cover has the Kigu logo in the centre. The original sifter is present.
This compact is in fantastic condition thoughout. The body of the compact looks and feels incredible.
