Set of four silver lipstick cases (.800 argent) from Italy, dating to circa 1910–1920 and 1930–1940, each with its original glass; three are in good condition and one is slightly opaque, a cabochon gemstone activates the opening mechanism, and each case bears a two-digit number with a fully functioning sliding mechanism.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Set of 4 lipstick cases made around the 1920s and in any case by the mid-20th century, in silver with the 800 hallmark impressed on the lipstick case. The 4 lipstick cases all have the original glass, 3 in excellent condition and 1 slightly opaque. A cabochon of semiprecious stone mounted in silver triggers the opening mechanism of the lipstick case and the glass.

The 4 objects have a simple and elegant design, with a decorated surface and a fully functioning sliding mechanism. Each also bears a two-digit number probably connected to the type of object.

There are obviously signs of use but the items are still in good condition.
