Every vintage piece is individually checked and described, with any notable age-related wear clearly detailed and photographed. Orders are carefully packed and sent using tracked delivery, with international shipping available.
A vintage Stratton Lip-View, made in England, with an all-over engine-turned gold-tone finish.
Measuring approximately 6 cm, the circular case opens to reveal Stratton’s folding mirror and integrated lipstick holder.
Rather than enamel or pictorial decoration, this example uses finely patterned metalwork across the case, giving it a simple geometric appearance.
The mirror remains clear and the folding mechanism and lipstick fitting operate correctly.
There are light surface marks to the gold-tone finish from previous use, but the engine turning remains well defined.
A straightforward example of Stratton’s Lip-View design, with the patterned metalwork providing all of the decoration.
