Unused Kigu Lucite Basket Bouquet Powder Compact 1950s
A fabulous unused Kigu Lucite basket 'Bouquet' loose powder compact. This enchanting Lucite novelty compact is from the 'Old 63-Series' made in the late 1950s. The compact is in superb condition! A high quality vanity made by one of the premier British makers. It features the most elaborate engine turned designs which resemble a fancy wicker basket. Around the lid and base the 'gilt jeweller's finish' is decorated with the most gorgeous scalloped design. The compact has a 'graceful handle', which is functional and robust. The lid has a Lucite dome which protects the most adorable reverse carved Lucite floral display on gold and silver tin foil background. The interior case contains an excellent clear mirror, as well as the original signed puff and sifter and the registered Kigu trademark. It is also signed 'Bouquet REG. DES.' All hinges and clasps work perfectly. The whole item is first rate. This piece will never tarnish or need to be cleaned as it was coated with a layer of transparent enamel during the manufacturing process. An immaculate drawstring pouch is included with this item. Measures 5.5 cm and weighs 57.2 grams.
