Rare Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip Stratton Corona powder compact 1950s
A rare Stratton 'Corona' made in the 1950s in superb condition. The royal themed Stratton compacts are highly collectible. This one captures a real moment in history. This mid-century antique powder compact has a pictorial inlay showing Queen Elizabeth II & the Duke of Edinburgh. The image was one taken from a photograph by the Court Photographer of the British Royal Family - Stirling Henry Nahum known by his professional name of Baron. The pictorial inlay is the exact image.
The scene has been well protected over the last sixty plus years by a plastic cover. Around the edge there is a lacquered & engraved brass rim. The lid lifts to reveal an excellent mirror which gives an accurate reflection. The powder well contains a clean waxed paper insert & the original sifter, as well as the original beautiful puff. The puff is signed 'Stratton' in gilt letters & the 'Compact-in-Hand' logo all gilt too. All clasps & hinges work perfectly. The base is decorated with a fine spiral. Also the Stratton pouch is also included to protect this highly collectible vanity. Measures 3 inches diameter. Weighs 91 grams.
