Description from the seller

Historical elegance in a pendant: Mirror lipstick pendant

Exceptional value – flawless, original Czechoslovak 900 silver mirror lipstick pendant from the post-Monarchy era

Step back in time to the golden age of the First Czechoslovak Republic (1918-1938) with this extremely rare and flawless 900 silver lipstick pendant!

Embodying the sophistication and bourgeois elegance of the Art Deco era of the 1920s and 1930s, this object uniquely combines practicality and luxury. During the First Republic, led by T. G. Masaryk, art, culture and craftsmanship flourished, creating a demand for sophisticated, quality products.

Innovative design: the lipstick holder is a true masterpiece, the genius of which lies in the fact that the mirror does not fold out, but fits into the side of the case, and blends perfectly into the body of the pendant with a sliding mechanism.
Flawless condition: The mechanism and the mirror both work flawlessly and are undamaged - a true survivor piece.

Quality silver: The hallmark is clearly visible on the back: the 900 mark guarantees the high, 90% pure silver content, while the master's mark attests to the excellence of the maker's craftsman. 5 cm long when folded. Weight: 28.4 grams

Decoration: the graceful, engraved surface decorated with plant motifs reflects the subtle elegance of Art Deco.
This lipstick holder is not just a pendant, but a piece of jewelry that carries the romantic charm and historical depth of a bygone era. A perfect gift for collectors of antique jewelry, history, or quality handicrafts.
