An unusual vintage Alexandra de Markoff powder compact, designed to resemble an elegant pocket watch.
The round case measures approximately 6 cm diameter, with a textured gold-tone front, rich blue enamel reverse and decorative watch-style crown completing the illusion.
Open it and the piece reveals its true purpose, with a single mirror, original powder screen and Alexandra de Markoff branded puff still present.
It is in very good vintage condition, with the original fittings and accessories retained and the deep blue enamel presenting beautifully.
Alexandra de Markoff was known for making cosmetics feel rather luxurious, and the pocket-watch construction turns an otherwise practical powder compact into something much more distinctive.
A clever novelty design that still manages to feel elegant rather than gimmicky.
