A beautiful vintage Stratton powder compact from the sought-after Sous l’Empire series, featuring the elegant Louis Henri III design. Rich in romantic charm, the artwork depicts a finely dressed courtly couple in exquisite period costume, capturing the grace and splendour of a bygone era. Every detail has been beautifully preserved, making this a particularly striking example of Stratton’s celebrated decorative compacts.
The reverse is finished with a radiant engine-turned sunburst design, while inside the compact retains its original mirror, signed Stratton powder puff, sifter and instruction label. It also comes complete with its original Stratton pouch, a lovely addition that is so often missing.
Presented in exceptional vintage condition, the artwork remains wonderfully vibrant with a superb gold-tone finish throughout. The mirror has only the faintest age-related markings around the outer edge, which are minimal and do not detract from its beauty or display appeal.
A refined and increasingly collectible Stratton compact, perfect for lovers of vintage vanity, historical design and fine English craftsmanship. A truly elegant piece to treasure or to gift.
