The exterior is crafted from sturdy, dark blue faux leather, enhanced with brass fittings that add a touch of sophistication. Inside, the deep blue satin lining exudes refined sophistication, perfectly showcasing the meticulously organized accessories. Opening the case reveals an oval brass-framed mirror affixed to the lid, designed to facilitate personal grooming even on the go. The set includes a tortoiseshell-effect comb, elegantly secured in its strap, alongside glass bottles with metal caps originally intended for perfumes, tonics, or lotions. Circular containers were used for creams or powders, while a brush and other grooming tools completed the essential kit for maintaining an impeccable style during travel. This type of vanity case was indispensable for high-society travelers journeying by train or aboard luxurious ocean liners. Every detail, from the robustness of the structure to the organized interior, was crafted to combine functionality and aesthetics, embodying the spirit of an era when every daily gesture was a small ritual of elegance. Despite signs of age that add authenticity and charm, this case retains its character and uniqueness. It is perfect not only as a collector’s item but also as a decorative piece to evoke the glamour and style of a bygone era. See less
