Traditionally the first anniversary is celebrated by gifting paper or plastic. Lucite is a luxury thermoplastic. In the 1940s and 50s it was used to fashion expensive and luxurious accessories and handbags. Mid-century accessories made from this material are highly collectible. Lucite is the brand name of DuPont’s acrylic type of material that has the properties of plastic and glass.  

The original accessories are present - presentation box, pouch, puff and sifter. The lid shows a beautiful design of musical notes with facet cut rhinestones set atop Lucite. All the rhinestones are in place.
