Antique Owl Compact - Gorgeous Mid Century Accessory Cute Owl with Sparkly EyesThis is a charming little compact likely from the 1930 1940s. It is made of bright brass metal, which is very hard to photograph. To the top is the cutest little owl head with lovely detail and even little blue glass eyes set in a feathery brass face. It opens nicely from the side to reveal a very bright and clean interior and mirror. The inner flap opens nicely to reveal some powder remnant and pads. The inside is nice and clean with some age related

6 inches long and has a lovely open work gilt  ball on the top

The stone is quite naively set and it is a beautiful little piece

which is very hard to photograph

It has A Joyous Xmas and A Happy New Year to the front with a lovely inked message on the rear For Dear Bertie From Granny

This is a lovely set of Victorian lorgnettes - folding eye glasses

The glass may have tiny flea nibbles and a small nibble to the base with an interesting clear base so possibly a cranberry glass wraparound and it is in lovely antique condition

The lid opens nicely and the hinge is good and it snaps shut beautifully with some minor internal cleaning residue

What makes this truly special is the little hand painted and drawn pictures

It is unusually double sided with a a lovely motto of Made of the Wood That Grows on the Banks of the Doon

Members of rich European families would travel around Europe
