A wonderful round two piece brass toned Musical Powder Box from the 1940s time frame. It is a musical storage container that was once used to hold powder and a puff. A lady would keep this on her dressing table and use it to store the powder and puff she used to make up her face. This retro music box has a bell shape and a brass finish. The music box still works beautifully!
The top lid has a glass or porcelain floral design set in the center that has pink, blue and purple flowers on it. When the lid is removed, the music plays.
Inside the musical powder box is a depression where the powder and a puff would be. It could also be used to store jewel or trinkets on a dresser, dressing table, bathroom or makeup counter.
The wind up key for the music to play is on the bottom in the center of the piece. The box has three small pedestal legs.
Measures 4" high. The base has a 4 1/2" diameter. The top lid has a 3 1/2" diameter at the base. The floral piece on the lid top is 2" in diameter.
In great vintage condition with no chips or dings. Light wear commensurate with vintage age. The music part works well too. I am not sure what the tune is.
