This fluffy white vintage c. 1910 - 20's swansdown powder puff has a soft silky pale
blue top, accented with a ivory colored handle, that we believe to be either bone
or celluloid. Likely made in France, as most of the early puffs were.
It is in very nice vintage estate condition, remaining quite fluffy and nice. Lightest
hint of powder fragrance to down feathers. Under very close, magnified inspection
it appears that the silk top displays a slight bit of shredding in one small area.
This is not unusual or unexpected and is not easily detected. The handle has a
very small flat spot at base.
An antique ~ vintage French puff, patter, pli or wand makes a very charming and
attractive dressing table accessory for milady’s boudoir vanity.
