About the Item

A beautiful Art Deco compact by Black Starr and Gorham. It is Sterling Silver with a 14k Gold accent on top, fitted with 3 small precious stones likely rubies. The compact is in estate found condition, we have not polished it. The mirror on the interior is almost flaked off in the back. Easy enough to replace it. We have left it as it's the original period piece. The compact portion looks unused. The compact opens and closes nicely. In good overall estate found condition, except for the degradation of the mirror.
