Very Vibrant Vintage Vogue Vanities

This Vogue Vanities compact has a very vibrant floral design on the top. The colours are still really bright against the cream background, and it's highlighted with a lovely, deep metallic gold. There's no damage to the design at all, that I can see.

I can date this to the 1950's because Vogue Vanites stopped making compacts during the war years, and started up again in 1946. In the 50's they started making a larger size compact which was 9.5cm diameter, which this one is. The sifter is present, and the mirror is in perfect condition. Considering it's age this compact is in really good condition, and is still very useable today.

All my vintage compacts can be compared together here.
