My latest little purchase, found whilst visiting Wells, is this tiny ribbonwork powder box, probably dating from the 1910's to 20's.
It contains its original swansdown powder puff and has a mirror lining the inside of the lid.
It fits nicely with some of the other 'smalls' in my collection.
I love looking out for treasures like these, as there seems an endless variety to be discovered.
Enjoy your day!

Lovely - having it beside a thimble gives a real perspective on its size. It's amazing things that folks had way back when. I always like think about the previous owner, how they got it, how they used it and the journey it took to get to be mine.
