A beautifully detailed Austrian sterling silver powder compact, featuring a delicate rose-pink floral lid and an especially charming surviving interior ensemble: a fitted mirror, Coty-branded powder puff, and removable Coty refill insert.
The lid displays an intricate arrangement of flowers and foliage surrounding a finely textured circular center. Decorative borders frame the design, while a repeating diamond-patterned band encircles the silver case. The underside is equally attractive, with concentric undulating lines radiating outward from the center—a lovely detail that rewards viewing this piece from every angle.
Inside, the warm gold-toned finish provides a beautiful contrast to the silver exterior. The removable insert retains its Coty Paris–New York branding and printed refill information. The accompanying fabric puff bears the Coty name, adding character and interest for collectors of vintage cosmetics and vanity accessories.
The interior of the silver case is clearly stamped “MADE IN AUSTRIA” and “STERLING,” with additional marks and numbers shown in the photographs.
The compact is offered with all accompanying components shown: the fitted mirror, Coty powder puff, and Coty refill insert. These surviving accessories make it a particularly appealing addition to a collection of sterling silver, decorative compacts, perfume and cosmetics memorabilia, or antique vanity pieces.
