AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Vintage silver lipstick case in 800 silver, an elegant handbag accessory dating back to the first half of the 20th century, crafted in the ornamental style typical of the Art Deco and post-Deco periods. A relic of another era, designed to accompany ladies of the time in their daily beauty rituals.

The cigarette holder is entirely decorated with floral engravings and sinuous motifs, executed with great artisanal care. On the front, a dark green, opaque, and uniform cabochon stands out, probably made of agate or jade, adding a touch of color and preciousness to the silver structure.

Inside, the small door houses an original mirror, still in good condition and perfectly usable, with slight oxidation on the right side that attests to its authenticity and history. The lipstick tray bears faint traces of vintage lipstick, a detail that tells the story of the object without compromising its functionality.

The '800' hallmark is clearly visible and guarantees the quality of the silver used, typical of Italian production of the period.

A fascinating piece, ideal for collectors of vintage bathroom accessories, enthusiasts of decorative silverware, or anyone looking to add a touch of retro charm to their collection.
