This silver plated face powder container is fashioned in the shape of a young lady in an elaborate gown & hairdo. Although it is meant to house face powder, it would also make a nice pin dish for rings or notions. The base is engraved LA Prom 26 & the underside of the lid is marked Copyright U.S.A. The engraving makes me believe that this was a memento of a prom night back in 1926. The piece is probably made of spelter (white metal). The silver plate is in excellent condition. The price included shipping within the United States. Antique Decorative Silver Debutant Lidded Face Powder Container
