Vintage Stratton Powder Compact Flamingo Design Blue Enamel 7.5cm England 1950s
A striking vintage Stratton powder compact, beautifully finished in a deep cobalt blue enamel with an elegant flamingo scene that immediately catches the eye. The design features a group of flamingos standing in still water, delicately detailed in soft pinks and corals against the rich blue ground—an atmospheric, almost painterly piece that feels both graceful and distinctive.
The reverse is classic Stratton, with a finely engine-turned concentric pattern that reflects the light beautifully, giving that unmistakable mid-century glow. Inside, the compact is clean and well presented, with the Stratton signature to the inner lid and the original inner fittings still in place, making it a lovely example for collectors and display alike.
Pieces with scenic enamel lids like this have a real presence—they stand out instantly among more traditional floral designs and bring a slightly more unusual, decorative feel to a collection.
A wonderful addition for collectors of Stratton powder compacts, or for anyone drawn to elegant vintage accessories with a bit of personality and charm.
