$130

Vintage 1920's Brass Norida Powder Compact-Cannot Spill This is a lovely circa 1920's Norida Powder Compact with the figure of a Victorian woman gathering flowers in a flower garden in beautiful high relief on a textured background on the front and the Norida trademark on the back. The patent 1504001 and Made in the USA is in printed in the lip of the compact. It measures about 2 1/8? in diameter and is about " thick. Most of these compacts that you see are Silver Tone but this one is gold tone, and is brass. It has its original mirror that is in good condition, the catch for the front lid works great, the hinge is nice and tight and in excellent shape, it has a chrome spinning powder release on the inside with perforated bottom, is designed to use pressed powder that is refilled by twisting off the bottom for powder insertion and the bottom has a spring loaded plate to push the pressed powder up against the powder release. Norida spent a fortune advertising their "Cannot Spill" patent. It was a loose powder control that worked and was an alternative to the cake powder and powder bags. It is in exceptional condition, the only thing I can see wrong with it is that there is a tiny dent in the back. This vintage compact would make a wonderful addition to any collection or a great gift for that special person. Very good overall condition. Powder puff is not included. Signed on the mirror frame and the back of the compact. We accept cash on pickup or mail a check plus postage, we don't ship until check clears, but we do ship.
