Known as Sphinx or King Tut, this Art Deco pink satin glass powder jar features a figural finial of a Sphinx head painted in gold, while the jar is a cone shaped hexagon standing on three feet. This figural powder jar is shown and described on pages 44-45 in Whitmyer: Bedroom & Bathroom Glassware of the Depression Years. Beautifully executed with fine definition to the Sphinx features and an incredible Art Deco geometric shape. The jar with lid measures 5" x 5 1/4". There is a flake missing from one corner of the inside rim of the jar, not seen with the lid in place, also several scratches inside - The Sphinx figural on the lid has a sliver missing from one side of the nose [see photo] and some wear to the gold paint, due to age - there is no other damage.
