Silver Hallmarked and Enamel Guilloche Powder Compact Case
A circular powder compact case featuring a silver hallmarked construction with decorative guilloche enamel work. The top of the case is adorned with a detailed white guilloche ground radiating from the center, overlaid with a central floral motif composed of red, green, and gold enamel in symmetrical scrollwork. The outer ring is finished in a vivid cobalt blue translucent enamel with small gold dot inlays. The compact opens to reveal a gold-tone interior and a built-in round mirror in the lid, which shows signs of age-related spotting. The inner compartment, designed for face powder or cosmetic storage, retains its original metallic finish. The hinge and clasp mechanism are functional but display minor tarnish and wear consistent with age. The bottom of the case also features a machine-turned engine pattern in concentric circular waves, consistent with traditional guilloche decoration. Some areas exhibit patina and minor surface wear, especially around the hinge. Hallmarked along the upper rim.

Dimensions: 2.75"W x 0.5"H

Condition: Age related wear.
