Stratton Folding Comb Queen Elizabeth 2 Souvenir, Gold Tone Engine Turned (10.5cm)

A lovely vintage Stratton folding comb, complete with its original presentation box and branded comb, made in England and commemorating the RMS Queen Elizabeth 2.

This is a classic Stratton accessory piece, featuring a gold tone engine-turned outer case with a radiating sunburst design. Inside sits the original brown tortoiseshell-style comb, clearly marked “Stratton England,” confirming authenticity. The inner lid is printed “RMS Queen Elizabeth 2,” placing this as a souvenir piece likely sold onboard or associated with the famous Cunard liner during the mid-late 20th century.

The comb measures approximately 10.5 cm (4.1 inches) when closed, making it a practical handbag or travel accessory as well as a collectible piece of British design history. Stratton were well known for their high-quality vanity items, and this sits nicely alongside their compacts and accessories from the same era.

Condition is excellent and appears unused, with the comb teeth intact and clean. The outer case retains a strong, bright finish with only light handling marks. The original box is included and displays well, though there is some minor damage to the clear plastic lid and light wear consistent with age.

A desirable boxed example, particularly with the QE2 connection, appealing to both Stratton collectors and ocean liner memorabilia buyers.
