VIGNY GOLD TONE VINTAGE POWDER COMPACT - LE GOLLYWOGG

This is an unusual compact.  I can find no reference to it anywhere (if any one else knows anything about it please let me know!).  It is made by Vigny with the famous Gollywogg on it that is on all their quite collectible perfumes.  I presume the date is either side of 1930.  Givny was started in France around 1920.  There is a full description on my website with 6 pictures.  Was it particularly rare?  Why can't I find another one!

CARVED, MOTHER OF PEARL, VINTAGE POWDER COMPACT

This powder compact - for loose powder - is unused.  It is probably mid century.  The top is a piece of cared mother of pearl - what a lot of work!  It is immaculate.  Full details are on my web site.  So nice to get items in such good condition - I wonder where it has been stored all these years!  Ref: 2917 C37/3  Price £78
