Art Deco Perfection: 1939 Enamel Travel Suitcase Makeup Compact Case, MUST SEE! An extraordinary embodiment of Jazz Age glamour, bon vivant luxury, and Art Deco wanderlust, this rare 1939 enamel travel suitcase makeup compact represents the pinnacle of 1930s design imagination. Objects of this caliber, playful yet exquisitely executed, are the very heart of serious Art Deco collecting, and it truly does not get better than this. Expertly hand-painted enamel, the compact is modeled as a miniature leather travel suitcase, complete with gold-tone corner protectors, buckled straps, and a sculptural handle that doubles as the opening mechanism. Tipping the handle gently releases the case, revealing a mirror-lined interior and a fully intact, original cosmetic arrangement: a compartment of nude-toned face powder (still present and loose), a smaller compartment of vivid rose blush with its original factory paper liner, and a petite puff, appearing barely used, if at all. The exterior is nothing short of breathtaking. The “leather” surface is entirely hand-painted, featuring linear horizontal brushstrokes on either side and a bold central squiggle motif, evoking the texture of fine luggage from the era. Encircling the case are brilliantly graphic Art Deco travel decals: Paris, London, New York, Roma, Monte Carlo, the Queen Mary, Havanna Club, and, most notably, the legendary French Art Deco ocean liner Normandie, each rendered in vivid color and crisp geometry. These travel motifs “dance” around a central engraved cartouche reading “Topaz Club ’39”, a tantalizing and deeply evocative personalization. During the 1930s, international travel became the ultimate symbol of sophistication and freedom, fueled by luxury steamships, glamorous hotels, elite clubs, and the rise of the cosmopolitan traveler. Suitcases plastered with travel labels became icons of worldliness, instantly signaling status, adventure, and taste. Art Deco embraced this imagery wholeheartedly, using bold typography, streamlined vessels, and exotic destinations to express modern life at its most glamorous. Novelty luxury pieces like this compact translated that ideal into intimate objects, portable symbols of privilege and pleasure. Comparable in spirit to the finest Cartier vanity cases...

This exceptional 1920s Hubley cast iron doorstop, “Charleston Dancers,” No. 270, was designed by the celebrated British-born artist Anne Harriet Fish (later Anne Sefton) and captures the exuberant, lighthearted spirit of the Roaring Twenties. The sculptural doorstop depicts a dancing couple in close embrace, joyfully moving across the floor as they dance the Charleston late into the night, an iconic image of Jazz Age energy and modernity. Anne Harriet Fish was born in Bristol, England, and trained as a painter working in both oils and watercolors. After relocating to New York City, she became a prominent illustrator for Vanity Fair and Vogue, including the celebrated April 1917 Vanity Fair cover. During World War I, German-made porcelain doll heads became unavailable in the United States, prompting Fulper Pottery of Flemington, New Jersey, originally founded in 1909 as a stoneware pottery, to establish a new line of porcelain doll heads. When the postwar market for these products collapsed, Fulper pivoted to producing ceramic novelties, hiring Anne Fish in the early 1920s to contribute her distinctive, expressive designs. Fish’s success in ceramic design led to her collaboration with Hubley Manufacturing Company, for whom she designed seven iconic cast iron doorstops, now among the most desirable in the field of American folk and decorative arts: No. 269 – The Tiger No. 249 – The Messenger Boy No. 268 – The Parlor Maid No. 250 – Bathing Girls No. 270 – Charleston Dancers No. 222 – Small Footmen No. 248 – Large Footmen Anne Fish’s Hubley doorstops are characteristically numbered on the back and bear a copyright mark, with her name “FISH” painted on the front base, often in black. Likely influenced by her background in ceramics, her designs were finished with a distinctive high-gloss surface, a feature that has worn away on many surviving examples. This example is in beautiful antique condition, having been gently cleaned with minor professional paint restoration. It retains excellent surface presence and sculptural detail, with a richness and charm that exemplify Fish’s playful yet sophisticated approach to design. A highly collectible example of Hubley cast iron, Anne Fish doorstops...

Large Early 20th Century Abercrombie & Fitch Solid Copper Equestrian / Fishing Tackle Box, A True Unicorn of American Sporting History There are rare objects. And then there are objects so scarce they feel nearly extinct. This sizable early 20th century solid copper tackle or equestrian box by Abercrombie & Fitch belongs in the latter category. Measuring an impressive 7.25 x 19.13 x 5.38 inches, this is not a modest accessory, it is a commanding, heirloom-grade sporting chest fashioned entirely from solid copper and now cloaked in the most extraordinary naturally developed patina one could hope to encounter. Deep auburns, warm chocolate browns, and subtle verdigris undertones create a surface that only a century of honest aging can produce. It is sculptural. Architectural. Almost reverent. In extensive research, no other surviving example of a copper latching box of this scale by Abercrombie & Fitch has surfaced. It is, quite simply, a unicorn. Founded in 1892, Abercrombie & Fitch was not originally a fashion retailer, it was the premier American outfitter for serious outdoorsmen, explorers, equestrians, anglers, big-game hunters, and presidents. By the early 20th century, the Abercrombie flagship store in Manhattan had become a pilgrimage site for those preparing for safari in Africa, trout fishing in the Adirondacks, or an expedition to the Arctic. Their catalogues were encyclopedic works of aspiration and utility, supplying everything from fly rods and saddlery to tents, custom firearms, and scientifically designed luggage. Abercrombie & Fitch supplied some of the most recognizable names in American history, including: Theodore Roosevelt, Ernest Hemingway, and Amelia Earhart Their goods were engineered not merely for leisure, but for endurance, precision, and legacy. In a 1910 catalog, Abercrombie advertised a smaller copper tackle box with a tinned interior, confirming their use of copper for specialty sporting containers. This larger example likely dates slightly later in the early 20th century and appears to be entirely solid copper with zinc solder construction, suggesting commission by a specialist metalsmith rather than mass production. Inside the lid, the classic early 20th-century Abercrombie & Fitch paper label remains intact—an extraordinarily rare survival in itself. Beneath it lies a second commission label indicating that this box was commissioned by Abercrombie, sold by Abercrombie, but manufactured by a specialist copper maker To the left of the Abercrombie logo is a “B,” and to the right “Co”, yet the exact maker remains unidentified. This was typical of the era: premier retailers frequently partnered with elite specialty manufacturers, particularly in materials such as copper, leather, canvas, and firearms. Just as Abercrombie worked with makers like Winchester Repeating Arms Company, Parker Brothers, and L.L.Bean, so too would they have commissioned bespoke storage from a workshop specializing in heavy-gauge copper. Copper offered distinct advantages for fishing and equestrian gear. It is naturally corrosion-resistant, durable in damp climates, structurally strong yet repairable, and has distinguished aesthetic appeal This box was built to survive generations. The exterior features two robust copper latches, a central locking clasp (no longer retaining its key, does not lock, but latches securely), an inset copper handle that moves smoothly and confidently, and two sturdy rear hinges that operate freely and remain structurally sound The lid opens to reveal four evenly divided interior compartments, ideal for fly fishing tackle, shooting accessories, equestrian grooming tools, or specialized field instruments. It is industrial elegance executed at the highest level. The underside tells a story no reproduction ever could. The bottom is hand engraved: “Jack Rochelle, High Point NC, USA” This inscription transforms the object from rare artifact to an epic American story. Born October 18, 1923, in Jamestown, North Carolina, John “Jack” Hardin Rochelle became one of High Point’s defining figures, a furniture industry legend, equestrian, decorated soldier, conservationist, and quintessential outdoorsman. Jack’s early life was marked by loss and resilience. Raised by strong maternal guidance and later adopted by T.V. Rochelle, who instilled in him a passion for furniture manufacturing, Jack developed drive, discipline, and ambition from a young age. He was a top equestrian in North Carolina, a Davidson College athlete and Kappa Sigma member, president of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity at the University of Georgia, head of the ROTC Cavalry Unit, and a student of furniture design at the University of Michigan When World War II erupted, Jack joined the U.S. Army, receiving his commission as an officer. He served in the final Horse Cavalry...
