This exceptional vintage Elizabeth II sterling silver and enamel mirror compact has a circular form.
The subtly convex anterior surface is embellished with an exceptional enamel panel depicting the portrait of a horse wearing a bridle, accented with a guilloche enamel border.
The enamel panels are bordered with bands of simplified bead and spindle decoration.
The reverse of the vintage compact, which is also subtly convex in nature, is embellished with a panel of impressive engine turned decoration.
The compact is fitted with two plain rounded thumbpieces to the anterior surface.
This impressive compact opens to reveal the original integrated mirror and powder compartment; this compartment retains the original cosmetic puff.
