Description: This exquisite small glass compact lidded box is a true gem for collectors. Its stunning blue enamel design, combined with the intricate guilloche pattern, make it a beautiful piece of art deco style. The box is estimated to be from the 1940s. Guilloche dates back to 16th century France, but became more popular in the late 1800’s. The technique is mostly used by watch and jewelry makers where metal is hard pressed engraved into intricate patterns, either by hand or machine, and sometimes like in the case of the piece here, enamel is laid over the design to create a translucent look. Each piece is unique and no two are the same due to the calculated movements each cut requires.
