    Description

    What we have here is a gold metal compact case with ornate mother of pearl lid. There's an unusual bejeweled clasp. The insides include mirror and powder compartment. Some powder still in compact. From its design, I think that this is from the 1940s or 1950s. About 2 7/8 by 2 7/8 inches in size. Well constructed and in great shape!
    Founded in 1920 in Elizabeth, Union County,
    Volupte
    was a leading costume jeweler noted for its elegant, functional
    compacts
    , cigarette cases, purses and costume pieces, especially items produced from the 1930s through the '50s.
