An unusual vintage Stratton powder compact featuring a horse-head design, a subject far less commonly encountered than the florals and scenic decoration normally associated with the British maker.
The equestrian image forms the focal point of the gold-tone case, giving the compact obvious crossover appeal for both Stratton and equestrian collectors.
Inside, it retains its mirror, powder compartment and sifter, and it also survives with its protective pouch.
There are signs of previous handling and use to the case and interior, but the horse design remains clear and the original fittings have been retained.
It is the subject that really distinguishes this Stratton — a proper vintage vanity piece, but one with considerably more personality than another conventional floral compact.
